What happens if you connect a PC to the ONT directy. Do you see 100Mb or 1000Mb?
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?

What is the mfr and model# of this swtich?
Sounds like the WAN port on the RBR is faulty. I would try another Orbi AX system and see if the problem continues or not. I hope not.
