RBR50 Solid Magenta light with internet connectivity

I had an outage with Xfinity.  Since then my Orbi RBR50 has either flashed white or has been stuck in solid magenta.  My Xfinity service is back up.

 

I have power cycled and rebooted the entire system.

 

I cannot access the device in any manner. Not via the internet nor the App.

 

How do I fix this?

    An Xfinity outage, or a power outage that affected everything?

        The typical process is to power cycle the Xfinity device, then power cycle the Orbi router.

         

        An additional test would be to connect a computer directly to the Xfinity to verify that Xfinity is indeed providing service. (temporarily, in place of the Orbi)   This is sometimes a challenge for  modern households that have no computers with Ethernet ports.
