What are you thinking of putting in bridge mode?
Different manufacturer's use the term "bridge mode" to mean different things.

Ok, so turns out that the LAN interface on the RBR10 was acting wonky. I would plug in the laptop, do a speedtest and find that it was sometimes slow, sometimes not. It was very helpful to look at advanced>show statistic in the web admin interface. Watching that with another laptop show that it would "flop" between 1000M/Full and 100M/Full. I set the interface to on the laptop from Auto Negotiation to 1000M/Full Duplex and got the higher throughput.
I factory reset the RBR10 and re-installed the latest firmware and now I am getting 943.52Mb/s through the RBR10 LAN port consistently.
Thanks for everyone's help.
Kudo's to plemans.
