What is this Verizon router? Is it in modem only (bridge) mode or it is in modem/router mode?
Is the Orbi in router mode or AP mode?
Which Orbi model is it?
I have 1 Orbi extender upstairs.
Which Orbi is it? A satellite?

Depending on the answers to the questions above, the best bet might be to get another Orbi satellite that is compatible with your existing Orbi system.
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
