I would also ensure your using good quality LAN cables. CAT6 is recommended. 

 

What is the Mfr and model# of the ONT the RBR is connected too? 

Does using DHCP instead of PPPoE result in any difference? 

Try powering OFF both RBR and ONT for 30 seconds then back ON. 

 

I would contact the ISP and ask for help and information on this. Possible that PPPOE may not be needed.
