nginx proxy manager - Reverse Proxy Not Working
Long story short... I was too excited on getting the Orbi that I replaced my BT SmartHub2 and using the Orbi as the new router. I was able to take a csreenshot of the port forwarding required. ...

Okay strangely. I think things have sorted itself out and I genuinely don't know how.
- I had to reset the Orbi.
- Restart the setup of the Orbi Router.
- Switched off my Pi and so the nginx proxy manager.
- Restarted my Pi and all the services (npm).
Everything seems to have magically worked now.
Thanks and sorry all. Seems like a the classic case of "Have you tried turning it off and on again"

How about doing the same thing on the Orbi router that you did on the BT Hub: forward ports 80 and 443 to the LAN IP address of the nginx proxy manager.
On the Orbi web interface (http://orbilogin.net), select the Advanced Tab, Advanced Settings, and the menu item Port Forwarding.

Does "CanYouSeeMe.org" report the same IP address as the Orbi WAN IP? (Orbi web interface, Advanced Tab, "Internet Port")
