Will orbi work with all in one modem/router
I have a Netgear router/modem AC1900 all in one. Will Orbi work just as well? Looking at the AC2200 tri-band.

Modem Combo Units:
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, configure AP mode on the Orbi router.
If your looking at the CBK40 system, this is a cable modem/router MESH system, this would replace your NetGear router/modem.
