Ok, so I reset the new router and let it be in router mode. It shows in the orbi device list with an IP. Thing is when I set the router in AP mode it disappears from the device list.
The new routers own LAN ip adress for management page is 192.168.8.1
In the Orbi device list it gets IP 192.168.1.55 connected as router
To access it's management page, i'll have to connect to it through its own WiFi or through lan on my pc. And the management page is working. But when i make it AP it disappears.
Just spotted i thing, if it of any interest. So when connected to orbi WiFi i can get to Orbi management page, but not to the new router. When i connect to the new router i can connect to it's management page, and also to orbis management page.

Since you run Voxels FW, you'll need to post over on his site or smallnetbuilders forum for help and support if his FW is loaded. This forum is for NGs stock FW. There are differences between his and NG stock FW.
