Hello Bolson32,
Basic VLAN is supported by Orbi. An advanced version of VLAN tagging is coming in the future but no ETA of when.

Just set your C2100T in transparent bridge mode and use PTM-Tagged and VLAN ID 201 on the C2100T Broadband Settings page. Then you can connect Orbi and it will pull a WAN IP throught the modem.
I have the C2100T and that is what I do. There is no need to have VLAN tagging support on the router at all. At least that's how it works with my CenturyLink service in a non-pppoe area.

I've tried that and I lose internet connectivity. There's another post on here with someone who lives in a Centurylink PPPOE area that has the same issue. Doesn't seem to work as intended, to be fair I didn't give it an incredible amount of time.
Currently using it in AP mode, but I feel like I'm losing some of the traffic features, etc.
