Bugger. By chance would Disney Circle (or the newer Netgear Parental Controls) have been activated on this Orbi?

This looks suspiciously like the Orbi has been told, "don't bother your pretty head over Access Control any more. The user wants to use (some feature on the "app")".

I turned parental controls on, but that was because there were no blocking options otherwise.
Are you on the latest firmware?

Yes, I am on 2.7.2.104. I have no idea what provisions Parental Controls have to control access.
Ok, I'll try and turn that off to see if it changes things
