What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

Modem is Arris Surfboard SB6183 (P/N: 592431-003), but as I mentioned in the initial post, I also tried the Xfinity X1 router in bridge mode and had the same issues, so I took it back.
Traffic Meter is off.
Just updated FW to v2.7.2.104. Yes, I did a full factory reset.
