The address for Orbi is 192.169.1 not 2. There is no problem connecting with any device direct to modem nor was there using 2 different Asus routers that just worked with the modem allowing access over the network. A recall I did change from the default setting at one time and access via the Asus was blocked so had to context direct and change back. This may have been bridge mode, I was wondering as a more problem free which modems do conext direct through Orbi’s?

I have not asked for the Orbi IP, the modem IP is the interesting one ... btw, 192.169.1 is not a valid IPv4 address.

You have 2 routers (Vigor & Orbi), so you have to set the Vigor to bridged/modem only mode or use the "DMZ" function.
Then you should be able to access the Vigor via the IP address, which I still cannot found in this thread.
