Ok, so lets do this, disable pass thru on the ISP modem and configure the RBR for AP mode. Ensure the Modems wifi radios are disabled. Use a wired PC connected to the RBR with both RBSs turned off for now. Lets work with the RBR alone for now. What speeds are seen using this configuration.

Those speeds wired?
Have seen some odd issues with these ATT model modems. Only thing i would try if you can, take the RBR to a different location to see if it works with a different modem. Compare speeds. Maybe some problem between the RBR and ISP Modem.
Only other thing would be to file a support ticket with NG and see if the system can be RMAd.
I RBK50 works on my 1Gb speed and see near 900Mpbs and 50Mbps on the UP. So I can confirm mine works, however I use a CM1100 Cable modem which is a modem only. No router built in.
