Australia NBN HFC via iinet - RBR350 Can't detect internet

Question

Hi All,&nbsp;Issue: Trying to set up Orbi RBR350 direct to NBN modem but never detects internet connection, even when include&nbsp;PPPoE username and password.&nbsp;Internet provider: HFC NBN connection via iinet&nbsp;iinet provided router model: TP Link&nbsp;Archer VR1600v&nbsp;Things tried:&nbsp;1. Called iinet, they suggested WPS sync and / or pass through existing router to Orbi via ethernet to no success. 2. Trawelled Netgear forums with no sucess.&nbsp;Latest working assumption is I have to make iinet provided router into a bridge to enable Orbi router. But just a little nervy in terms of how to and if it doesn't work can it be undone, so at least I can continue to use my iinet provided router.I'm lothed to buy a new&nbsp; / different mesh network so any help welcome.&nbsp;Tks.

Leave the the tplink in router mode and try it with the Orbi in access point mode.&nbsp;
