This is very strange. Is Access Control turned on? (on the Advanced Tab->Security->Access Control) When a device is "Blocked", it is actually allowed to connect, but then is not allowed to do anything. There are several threads on the forum about Orbi's blocking devices when they should not.
Oh no, the "app". We Old Timers have spent our lives with computers and the Orbi web interface. The experience is totally different. For example, when I use the app and press on "Security", it brings up a screen wanting me to sign on to Netgear to manage my "Armor" subscription, but I did not turn on Armor. (Nor did I sign up for Disney Circle.)
There is a similar thing on the app, however. From the Network Map, press on the Router, and it brings up a list of devices and on the right side of the screen is Pause/Resume. I have heard that sometimes a device gets "Paused" by accident when people are using the app and they do not notice brushing one of the toggles.
Yes. All of Netgear's WiFi routers, at least as far as I remember, have a builtin web server that provides the interface to control the settings and behavior. Point any modern web browser at the IP of the Orbi itself, usually 192.168.1.1, and it brings up the administrative interface. When Orbi's are taken "out of the box" or when doing a "factory reset", the administrative user name is "admin" and the password is "password." Users are urged (almost forced) to change the password to something more complicated. This mechanism is especially convenient if the user has a desktop or laptop computer that can be plugged into one of the Orbi LAN ports. The original WiFi name and password that are printed on the label are not needed at all.
Now that so many customers have only tablets and smartphones, Netgear has developed an entirely separate mechanism to control the router: the "app." We are seeing more and more Orbi owners on the forum who have no "computer".
What has become pretty clear (to me) is that the two mechanisms for administering an Orbi do not always work the same. It is almost like there are two separate programming teams. (Netgear is not alone in this "March of Progress". There are other WiFi systems which are set up only with an app. They have no web interface at all.)

This would be a double NAT condition which isn't recommended. -is-Double-NAT
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge 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. -do-I-configure-my-Orbi-router-to-act-as-an-access-point and =H7LOcJ8GdDo&app=desktop

Yes, you can stream Netflix over cellular data. You'll need to connect the phone to the television via a cable. You should also keep a very close eye on your data usage. Streaming video can use it up very rapidly.
Well, until I changed internet providers, my LTE connection was better than my home internet so, I can certainly imagine it. But, given the amount of data the streaming of video I do would use up, I think my carrier would kick me off my grandfathered unlimited data plan. ?
Connection is great. I've been streaming on I phone. I looked into it, and I can mirror (stream) from phone to tv using an HDMI cable with a Lightning Digital AV adapter. ($49) I can't get Internet at home. I have direct tv, but like some of the new shows on Netflix. I think I use around 1gb per hr. from experience with phone. I'm just interested in a few shows or movies now and then so I should be ok. My experience with cell data is once you hit certain usage they slow you down. I've never heard of contract be canceled. Thanks for the reply, it was helpful.
Hopefully those of you out there can help find a solution to this. I have two Roku stick, one of which functions without issue (Streaming Stick 4k), but unfortunately I'm having problems with the Roku Express.
My Roku Express connects to Netflix without issue, however, it will connect to any other streaming service reliably. I ended up performing a reset of the router and the Roku Express stick, after which it connected to Prime once but since its last use it is now failing to connect. Prime reports error code 0.28 and other services simply fail to initialise/connect.
I've attempted a factory reset of the Roku Express but this hasn't made any noticeable difference. I have various other devices connected to the router including the other Roku stick, PC, mobile phone etc.
We appreciate your report about this playback issue you're experiencing, and we'd like to know more about it. Could you tell us if you've been able to use this before without seeing these issues happening? How far is this device from your router? We would also suggest connecting your device to an alternative network, like a mobile hotspot, to see if that makes a difference.
The Roku box is in the room adjacent to the router. I tested the alternate wifi connection point available and this made no difference and I also tested using the suggested mobile phone hotspot but again, no difference.
If it's of any relevance, when the Roku box starts up it doesn't have the same advertisements/banners I see on the other box within the house prior to obtaining a connection to the network. I've also noticed that the only time the banners populate are on the three occasions I've successfully connected to services other than Netflix.
I have managed to perform firmware updates to both the Roku Express box and my router, however, this issue still persists. The only way I have found as a work around is to perform a Network Connection Reset whenever I wish to use one of the affected services.
@RokuEuniceL - I ensure to keep my devices up to date, however, as per your instruction I checked for updates and I am running the latest version. I have also swapped over my device so that it is powered via a wall socket (first time I've heard of this advice for your devices) and it has made no difference.

I use the Netflix app on all my devices. I have my Netflix logged into my TV which is connected to the WiFi at one of my houses and whenever I try to watch Netflix on any device at my other home using the WiFi there, it just does the same thing as you are facing. Following up with support, I got told its due to the new No-password sharing policy being implemented in small scale which should gradually roll out to everyone. Also, the support is not the best, at the early part of my tickets, they would just ask me to check by rebooting the device, re - installing Netflix app or some dumb crap, then after a lot of back & forth, they game me the above answer of No Pass Sharing
I have a smart TV and Rexton hearing aids. I just purchased a Rexton Smart Transmitter 2.4. I am able to successfully hear normal TV programs streamed to my hearing aids. But I do not know how to receive Netflix through my hearing aids.
