To connect the orbi system do i have to have to buy a modem , because I’m trying to put wifi in my home but I don’t have a wifi wireless
Yes, the orbi system or any wifi router needs internet services if your wanting internet access. You can use any router with out it for home networking services, however if you don't have internet access, then it's kind of pointless.
