I plugged everything in, downloaded app., connected on my phone and it still tells me I have no internet connection, don't know if issue is with cable or Orbi but my Motorola wifi works with no issue...I'm ready to return this system if I can't get support and apparently you can't email or call net gear??

       The non-psychics in your audience don't know what your "everything"
    is, or what's connected to what, how.

       Which "app"?  Probably unnecessary; a web browser may be all you
    need.

    > [...] it still tells me I have no internet connection, [...]

       What is this "it"?

       "Orbi" is not a model number.  What, exactly, is your "my Motorola
    wifi"?

       I see no reason to believe that any other gizmo would do any better.

      I hooked up my Orbi to my modem and downloaded the app on my iPhone per the instructions. The set up appeared to go well and I showed the connection in my wifi but when I tried to access the internet I was told there was no connection. It's model AC2200 and there's no need to reply like I'm an idiot cause I'm not

           Not a very detailed description of anything.

        > [...] It's model AC2200 [...]

           Not an actual model number.  Look at the product label.

           Perhaps, but evidence is sparse.  For example, you didn't find the
        Orbi forum, where you might get better answers sooner:

              https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/bd-p/Orbi

           If you start again there, then you might want to include some useful
        information in your problem description at the beginning.
