ORBI RBR 350 can't connect to HFC NBN via PPPoE
Our house got demolished and rebuilt. Before the demolition. I removed the black nbn box and kept it. While we were renting during the new house build I purchased the orbi and was using it successfull...
If the orbi was working prior and there was an ISP change, seems to point to the ISP. I'd contact the ISP and have them help you on there side with this. Ask them if there is any specific WAN side configurations that are needed.
If your ISP Modem already has a built in router and wifi. This would be a double NAT (two router) condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, configure AP mode on the Orbi router. https://kb.netgear.com/31218/How-do-I-configure-my-Orbi-router-to-act-as-an-access-point and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7LOcJ8GdDo&app=desktop
