It keeps telling me there is no internet and won’t let me connect with the anywhere access
I have this same issue. It keeps telling me there is no internet and won’t let me connect with the anywhere access in the Orbi app. I’ve done a reboot, turned the web protection off in the Netgear VPN, but it still won’t let me do the anywhere access. And it’s not broadcasting WI-FI signal to my home security system. It can’t do a firmware check either.

Are there devices which ARE connected to this Orbi over WiFi?
(i.e. the Orbi IS broadcasting WiFi and other devices can select this WiFi SSID, enter the password, and connect?)
Can a web browser on a device connected to the Orbi WiFi open the Orbi web management page?
(typically http://orbilogin.net )Mention of Netgear VPN would seem to indicate that Bitdefender Armor is enabled on this system, correct?

What Orbi model system do you have?
What mobile platform do you have Orbi app installed on?
Can you access the system at 192.168.1.1 using a PC and web browser?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.Can you try a factory reset on the system and setup from scratch using a PC and web browser and walk thru the routers setup wizard. Then after that completes, try accessing the system using Orbi app?
