ORBI750 + Satellite not providing internet connection

Nothing seemingly changed after both test and apply.
I initially thought it might be incompatibilities with ISP and my hardware but via Charters compatibility page, they should talk to each other without a problem.Can it be that the ISP "blocked" Orbi's MAC address! I've seen this before. For troubleshooting purpose, under "Router MAC Address" please choose "Use Computer MAC address" (if you're accessing Orbi from a computer) or select "use this MAC address" and just copy the MAC address of one of your satellites, and click Apply.
What Firmware version is currently loaded on the router and RBS?

So far have never had any issues up until this past week.
I run a PC setup with Windows 10 Pro - 64-bit
My ISP is Charter Spectrum, and they had a severe outage two days ago that seemingly affected the entire neighborhood.Eventually my Modem sprang back to life after numerous resets throughout the day, and is giving me connection, meanwhile the ORBI is staying a solid purple/magenta/pink - whatever you want to call it.
Having my desktop hard-lined into the modem gives me a stable connection, but connecting the modem to the ORBI router provides no successful internet connection. Devices on my home network will connect to the ORBI and accompanying satellite, but there is no connection.
I have done a router reset, a full factory reset via holding the reset button + powercycling to no avail.
I interface with the ORBI via browser and do not use the app provided by the company.
I also have not deployed Netgear Armor.
I am currently running the most up-to-date firmware available for both router and satellite.
Any ideas on how to solve this issue? Any help would be much appreciated!
