I just started experiencing the same issue. I also in AP mode, as I have my own firewall. Did you ver hear back from NG? My RBS50 lights up blue and goes dark like normal. I am also getting my normal speeds. Just maddenging.

Connecting the Orbi router thats in AP mode using it's Yellow WAN port to your firewall? 

Is the firewall also DHCP or does that come from a different service or device? 

Test the Orbi connected to the main host router with out the firewall attached as a quick test?
