You may want to turn the ATT router back on and run the Orbi in AP mode to avoid any double NAT issues. I just read about this today. The wifi att boxes may have specific port requirements Orbi isn't providing.

WiFi extenders and mess networks don't support MOCA. MOCA is what is required to make a wireless box work. Until they come out with a mess network that supports MOCA the wireless box won't work..As a cable tech I am hopeful that they will come out with a mess network that supports MOCA

Sounds like you might need to go through a re-instalation of your ATT boxes to sync them with Orbi. Try setting up your TVs (like it's new) from step 1, and when prompted to select a wireless network, pick your Orbi router. Hope that works.

Suggest placing Orbi Satellite near wired TV and using Ehternet to connect.

The last AT&T system that I saw was a combo modem/router. Did you disable the Wifi on the AT&T unit and point your devices to the new Orbi Wifi network?
