Orbi Mesh System Compatibility with Arris

Question

I am looking at getting an Orbi system for my house. I have an Arris TG1672-NA WifI modem/router currently. The TG1672 combines two analog voice lines, a 4-port Gigabit Router, and 802.11n wireless access point. Are these Orbi systems listed below compatible to my device?

Orbi AC2200, RBK20W

Orbi AC3000, RBK50

Orbi AC2200, RBK23

Orbi AX4200, RBK752

I appreciate any and all recommendations to include on defining the function (modem or router) for each system.

They all should be compatible.&nbsp;To avoid a double nat, you could put the arris in bridge mode.&nbsp;https://arris.secure.force.com/consumers/articles/General_FAQs/TG862G-NA-Bridge-Mode-Setup/?l=en_US&amp;fs=RelatedArticleor the orbi setups in access point mode.&nbsp;https://kb.netgear.com/31218/How-do-I-configure-my-Orbi-router-to-act-as-an-access-pointor you could put the orbi's ip address in the arris's dmz. (a little more challenging)
