Orbi Router RBR350 VLAN website login

- This hasn't worked.
- The device that is running the web browser connected to the Orbi system can't connect to the wifi.
Even if the Orbi router assigned itself the IP address 192.168.1.1 (not 0.1) the device can't find a website as there's no wifi.
If i go on to my own-non-wifi browser (Optus) that also doesn't work.

Thanks. I had totally missed the point.
- When the 350 was first powered up, it produced a WiFi signal that matched the credentials on the product label, correct?
(On the bottom of the case. The letters "O-R-B-I" plus a two digit number for the SSID and a combination of silly words for the password. Correct?) - The smartphone connected to that WiFi network correctly, found the router and began the set up?
- (confession: I do not ever use the Orbi 'app' to set up routers. I understand more and more customers no longer have computers that have Ethernet ports and thus cannot connect directly to a Ethernet port on the router for setup.)
- During the setup process, where the PPPoE user name and password are entered (and accepted?)
Was there a step where the WiFi SSID/password were changed? - So the issue now is:
- Neither the original WiFi network nor the new WiFi network appear at all? (and thus cannot be selected by the device running the web browser)
- A WiFi network appears, but connection attempts fail?
I never had occasion to use any of my 90 days of "complimentary support" and would be fascinated to hear "how it goes".
