No, it's not useable at all - you are mixing two networks, one is your ISP Internet, the other is your local network.
The ISP Modem must be a diect link/cable to the Orbi SRR60 WAN/Internet port only. Nothing else is possible (unless you head to operate VLAN capable switches and configure accordingly to be two networks, two VLAN, no mix.
Back to the original set-up.
