It is a Bell Modem - Giga Hub P/N - 253960552
Yes, I have tried a few different cables now. Still no luck. Also tried on a different modem and no luck.
Thank you for the instructions, but even after all this no luck either. I tried to take it to a Geek Squad Tech and they were no help either....their networks are protected so they cant even try to connect.

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.
