Got it to work. You cannot acces the GUI of Hitron. Spectrum locks it down. Thanks to CrimpOn who gave me some good ideas to start.
This is what I did.
- Powered off Hitron
- Waited 30 Seconds
- Restarted the Hitron modem and waited for it to settle.

- Went to my browser and typed https://registration.rr.com/ .This seems to unstick the mac address.

- Then went to the Orbi admin page, selected internet, kept defaults and hit test.
- All working now.
