Hello MattDJUK ,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
It is best to use your Orbi router in access point mode because it enables your entire network to use one network address. Using your Orbi router in router mode separates your Orbi network from your ISP network.
Please do the following to fix this issue:
Factory reset your Orbi router.
Switch the mode from router mode to access point mode.
Then add your CCTV devices to your network.
