I already disable all the wifi radios on the modem/router combo previously. Still only get 100 Mbps. The day of the install last Friday, they were disable as I knew I wanted to still use my Netgear Orbi.

Disabling the wifi on the ISP modem may not be enough. The modem needs to be fully bridged, or try option #2 if you want to use the Orbi in router mode. If not, try the Orbi in AP mode with the ISP modem in router mode and see if this changes anything.
Try a wired PC with the back of the RBR first. I would leave off the RBS for time being until you get good speeds at the RBR.
