Yes a full reset has been done.
What I tried before this response was connecting modem ethernet to wan port of nighthawk router and then connecting ethernet from lan port of older nighthawk to wan port of rbr and switching to AP mode... it is showing 1000 mbps on the wan in the status screen
I was on the phone with netgear earlier before I switched the setup and they looked at the stats screen and didnt even acknowledge that wan was only reading 100 mb
I am lost at what is going on

Sorry.. I meant that the old nighthawk router is showing 1000 mbs in the wan status screen however the rbr is only showing 100 mbs

So with the RBR connected to the LAN port of the old router, the RBRs status page reports 100Mpbs?

Ok, I would get the RBR replaced. If it's only showing 100Mpbs on the WAN port while connected to a 1000Mpbs port on the modem and a known working router, the RBR would be bad. Either contact NG support and ask about an RMA or return the system to place of purchase if thats still available to you.
