Just to update. Aussie Broadband replied that they do not support bridging setup on th netcomm modem/router due to the complexity of the settings setup between devices. They adviced me to contact Netcomm directly for the help.
On the Netgear Orbi, they indicated that it should just require to be setup with a DHCP connection and where it says "Does my connection require a login" select No.
The access point setup with Orbi seem to be working ok so did not have a real need to play around with modem bridging yet.

Does the modem in question have a DMZ? If so you could try this out for the Orbi in Router mode.
