Setting up Orbi
I have a VDSL/ADSL line and a modem router. Will Orbi replace all the modem and the router and will it connect to the VDSL/ ADSL line. I note that most of the Netgear equipment is for use with cable....

Orbi's are routers+WiFi accesspoints. You'll need a VDSL/ADSL modem.
You can
a) keep your current VDSL/ADSL modem+router and use the Orbi in the access point mode
or
b) disable the router feature of your VDSL/ADSL modem+router and use the Orbi in the router mode.
b) is preferred if you can disable the router features of yout VDSL/ADSL modem+router.
