Yes, everything else was default. One other thing though I did was I powered off my T-Mobile Home Internet Router which also uses Wi-Fi 6, there is a slight chance it was causing issues, but I doubt it, I made sure they weren't broadcasting on the same channels, it mostly used upper 5Ghz frequencies whereas the rbr750 only uses the high frequencies for the backhaul to the satelite and I didn't have any issues with the satellite device before. :)
FYI, Your ISP Modem already has a built in router and wifi. This would be a double NAT (two router) condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, configure AP mode on the Orbi router.

Sorry I forgot to mention I did change my wireless mode to AP mode since I have a firewalla Purple acting as a router between it and my cable modem.

So your ISP modem/ router is connected to this Firewall appliance as well? If so, this still a double NAT condition.
