Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.

I found odd timeouts and random high pings when connected behind the RBS of the 770v1 series. Others have post this as well. We've already made NG aware of this.
I've been testing a beta already and seems to have resolved the issues of devices connected behind the RBS and front haul. I'm hoping NG will be pushing this soon as it's badly needed by the 770v1 community. I can't say when they will. All up to them.

770v2 is NOT compatible with the 770v1 series and it will fail if you attempt to load it.
