Similar yes. I have had mine Orbi AX in AP mode behind my CAX80, XR450 and R7800 and other routers on occasion. This is a recommended configuration if you want to use a different modem router. Just disable the wifi radios on that router.
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?
