550M wireless is fine.
The issue is WIRED- using CAT7 on RBR.
600 tops over CAT7.
The RBR gives great WIFI, RBS is getting 150Mb wireless, odd as well.
I took my unit to other place with 1G over FTTH same issue.
900MB wired is fine for me, and 550Mb wireless is terrific for me (all house).

Ya 550Mb is around the max for wifi. Thats good though
So you took the RBR to the friends place and it's still not seeing 900Mb there? If so, then your RBR needs to be reviewed by NG support. I would ask about an RMA. Tell them of your friends system and that you tested yours out on his ISP and let them know of the result differences.

LAN to LAN speeds should be if you used a performance tool kit, you should see around 900 Mb. LAN adapters and OSs report differences however should be around max 900Mb calculated speeds.
Performance tooks like iPerf and there is one other i'd have to dig out which meaure actual WAN and LAN performance speed between Network adapter cards and routers.
What SNB reivewed and posted results for the Orbi 50 series:
