In viewing the connected devices I noticed the two different IP Address Networks. The devices which did not have internet connections were attached to the 192.168.0.1 network.
How do I turn off the 192.168.0.1 network. In addition, I do not have a Guest Network set up. It's turned Off.
The most likely situation is that the ISP modem/router is assigning IP addresses in the 192.168.0.x subnet and the Orbi is assigning IP addresses in the 192.168.1.x subnet.
What it sounds like is the Orbi router and Orbi satellite are both connected to the ISP router (or maybe to a switch that is connected to the ISP router).
The Orbi router WAN (yellow) port is supposed to be connected directly to the ISP device and Orbi satellites should be connected to the router LAN ports (or over WiFi).
The Guest network is an option on the same menu at Attached Devices.

Sounds like you have 2 devices (router, orbi, perhaps another) responding to DHCP requests and giving out addresses. Disable DHCP server on the non-Orbi device.
