UPDATE #2:
- I removed the Securifi Almond+.
- Configured the RBR50 back to Router Mode.
- Changed the MAC address of RBR50 to that of en0 from a computer I own.
- Rebooted the RBR50.
- Rebooted the Cable Modem (this is necessary).
Result:
- Problem Solved.
- So it seems the previous MAC address has been blacklisted somewhere along the route.
- Will contact the site administrator to see if there's anything they can do.
Thank you very much to everyone for your wonderful support. It's sincerely appreciated! :)

Has the modem and RBR been powered OFF for 1 minute then back on?
Try a factory reset on the RBR whlie you power OFF the modem. Walk thru the setup wizard with a wired PC and web browser connected at 192.168.1.1 or orbilogin.com
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and RBR. CAT6 is recommended.
Thanks for the reply.
- The RBR and the Modem were both powered off for 1 minute or more.
- The RBR was reset to factory defaults twice.
- The RBS (satellite) was also powered off for 1 minute or more.
- After RBR was factory-reset, a minimal setup was done with the Wizard.
- CAT-6e is wired throughout.
