If you enable LAG on the CM modem than you would enable LAG on the WAN side on the RBR and connect the RBR directly to the CM modem. Switch would be connected after the RBR.

I need a clarification:
Can the Orbi RBR750 WiFi router support (1) a pair of linked aggregated connections to the NetGear CM1100 Cable Modem AND simultaneously support (2) a different pair of linked aggregated connections to the NetGear JGS524E Switch?
I currently connect the CM1100 cable modem to the Orbi RBR750 yellow internet ethernet port and the adjacent ethernet port.
Can I establish a second linked aggregation connection from the two right most ethernet ports on the Orbi RBR750 to the JGS524E Switch?
TIA,
