Change back to .1.1 and while the Orbi reboots, power OFF the modem for 30 seconds then back on.

You only need to use the default IP address for the Orbi or you can use 192.168.0.1. Don't use .100.#
You should get ISP modem access thru the Orbi at 192.168.100.1 for any modem that defaults to this IP address when a router is connected.
When the Orbi is using 192.168.1.1, can you ping 192.168.100.1 with a wired PC oonnected to the Orbi?

The CM1150V modem is at 192.168.100.1 by default.
The Orbi is now at 192.168.100.2, with a DHCP range of .3-.254.
The computer cabled into the Orbi is at 192.168.100.7, and can ping the Orbi at .2, but cannot ping the modem at 192.168.100.1.
I can put the Orbi back to default values and try it.

It worked...turns out I was trying to solve a problem that didn't yet exist.
