PS- I'm also very concerned that at least I have working internet & WiFi now, If I factory reset and can't get into the interface I'm really screwed, I'll have no WiFi and no way to configure anything. Right now even the Orbi app can't connect to RBS or RBR. And yes I previously registered my Orbis in the app and was using it fine prior to the upgrade

One reason maybe that the Orbi app is recentlly updated and no longer supporting older Orib FW, i.e. v3. v3 FW was superseded 3 years ago.
If you do a factory reset, do that while the RBR is disconnected from your firewall appiance device.
I just did this on my Orbi system yesterday.
You can set it up manually from scratch while in router mode, then when you get it and the RBS setup, then configure AP mode on it. I recommend using the attached PDF as the process for AP mode.
