What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Swap LAN cables between the ONT and RBR.
What happens if you connect a PC to the ONT directy. Do you see 100Mb or 1000Mb?

Thanks for the reply.
I'm on the latest firmware: V3.2.16.6_1.4.4
ONT is Adtran 401.
I've tried swapping CAT6 cables between the ONT and the Orbi router, and I'm still seeing 100M/Full for the WAN port.

Has a power OFF of the RBR and RBS for 30 seconds since last FW update been performed?

So going directly from the ONT to a gigabit switch, I'm getting 1000M. So it's not the ONT. I'm getting 100M on the Orbi WAN port going direclty to the ONT and also going to the gigabit switch.
Is there a way to force 1000M on the Orbi? Why would it be auto-negotiating 100M?
