You have two options:
1. Set Orbi to AP Mode. In this case the ISP Router will be your network’s router.
2. Bridge the ISP Router or set it in DMZ forwarding mode. In this case Orbi will be your main router.

Thanks for the thought - but that just gets me to the ISP modem, not the Orbi router.

If you have two routers (the Orbi and another), and the Orbi is connected to the other router, most likely the Orbi will get the IP address of 10.0.0.1. Connect directly to that IP address instead of Orbilogin.net. You can then set it up in AP mode.
Use a PC/Tablet/Browser via Phone if no PC/Tablet - not the APP, it will be much easier.

Thanks for the solution - took a while to connect as I couldn't get to 10.0.0.1 until I connected via cable, disconnected from wifi, released and then renewed ip address, but managed to get it all working.
