Orbi RBK30 connectivity to AT&T Uverse Router

I am setting up my Orbi RBK30 for the first time, and I am connecting to my AT&T Uverse wireless router.  I have AT&T internet services only.  When I connect the Ethernet cable to the AT&T router, the light at the AT&T router connection is red/orange instead of green like the other Ethernet connections.  I have tried turning off WiFi on the AT&T router (and I've since turned it back on) and I connected a laptop to via Ethernet to the Orbi and have put the Orbi in AP mode but I continue to get the message from the Orbi app of "Orbi Network Not Found".  The AT&T router seems to be functioning fine, and when I turned WiFI back on the AT&T router, I can get WiFi internet service.  I have unplugged/restarted both the AT&T router and the Orbi router several times but to no avail.  Thoughts and next steps?

    Hello PeskyPG

     

    Have you tried to bridge the ATT modem and use orbi in router mode?
