Seem that Chrome is breaking other things too:

I have tried numerous times to login to it on chrome but it would happen every single time. So  I then used Firefox and it works just fine. Well I'm here to give a heads up that Chrome 77 for now is broken for orbi now. Older versions of Chrome still work though.

Concur with above.  Updated Chrome does not allow log on to Orbilogin page.  Edge works fine.
