Any wifi on the modem enabled by chance? I know if bridge mode is set, hopefully the wireless on the modem is also disabled. Having the modem too close to the Orbi base could cause problems if the wireless is enabled ON the modem.

Set LB 1120 to router and Orbi to AP mode seemed to give me a connection BRIEFLY and the Orbi is staying “white”. But the devices connected to the internet are not getting internet at this point so I can’t call it a success.

Can you factoy reset the Orbi base and walk thru the setup wizard with a wire connected PC connected to the back of the router base. Leave the satellites OFF for right now. Walk thru the setup wizard. I would also power OFF the modem then back on. While it's coming back to ready, reset the Orbi router and start the set up wizard. Let us know if this completes successfully or not. You can reset the Orbi router from the web page found at Advanced Tab/Backup/ERASE with your browser.
