         As I read it, the original question was about "the cable company
      wifi", not "the cable company".

         What, exactly, does "the cable company wifi" mean?  Have you some
      kind of modem+router with wireless capability?  What is it?  Is the
      (unspecified) "orbi" gizmo connected to it?  How?  The non-psychics in
      your audience know nothing about your current configuration other than
      what you provide.  So far, that's not much, and seems to be more
      confusing than useful.
