I was looking over some VPN searches the other day. From what I gather, DDNS is needed on Orbi for VPN to work. Others mentioned that this was kind of odd.
You might contact NG support to see what there official stance is on this.

I saw a previous post with the same title that says it "should be no problem" to set up the vpn without setting up the ddns stuff, which is exactly what I want do, as there is no built in option for my provider (dnsexit - and no, I dont want to have to change providers).
However, when I try to enable the vpn, & click apply, I cant get past the popup telling me to enable ddns.
Can anyone help/advise p!se ?
Thanks
