You said you changed to a new ISP and now both Orbi and your old router no longer work.
If you had Orbi and your old router setup to use a static IP from your old ISP, you might need to change your routers' settings to work with your new ISP.
I think you need to contact your ISP and ask them for help.

Thanks,

It's hard to say without more information from you or your ISP.
In most cases, you can set your router to obtain the IP address dynamically from your ISP. You can check if Orbi is configured this way. See Chapter 3 of the user manual here, which refers to setting up the Internet connection.
