What openreach modem are you using? Many of these are modem/router combo devices.
And then you have the Vigor which has its own routing.
And then you have the orbi.
You should be able to get the orbi on the same subnet as the vigor but you have to ensure you're not having more than 1 device acting in router mode.

Thanks for replying and giving me some hope. I am 99% sure only the Drytek is in router mode. The NightHawk is in ap mode and I have done a compete setup (in fact serveral) of the Orbi plugged into the DryTek with the NigthHawk switched off.
