Make sure you upgrade/download the latest Orbi app version from the App Store. Version 2.6.3.1 was released 1d ago and says (I just tried the app and it accessed my Orbi RBR850, I granted access to look for local devices when the iOS14 permission dialog prompted it upon first app launch - like many other apps):
iOS14 support. Please ensure that you grant "Local Network" access so that the app can communicate with your Orbi WiFi system.

Disconnect VPN from SEttings ->General --> VPN and then disconnect. It worked for me

When my iphone automatically downloade to IOS 14.4 had issues with my orbi app; however, I fix the issue by powering off the iphone and now my ordi app is back working again.
