Cannot access website through router but can on my mobile phone - Orbi issue? Circle issue? Other?
For some strange reason, I can't access the following site through my router:
- dpsk12.org
which is denver public schools
I can over my mobile data on my phone when I disconnect from the router...

Got my answer from my isp :
"it is an issue with DPS and one of their subscribed anti-spam lists. We've dealt with this issue with another customer as well. We have had no luck getting DPS to take care of the issue, so we implemented a work around on our side."
So - nothing with my Orbi router, Circle...something that I suppose is between the isp and the folks who manage the web site. Seems my isp needs my IP address and Orbi MAC address to allow this site to be accesssible. I'll just wait for my isp to implement their solution and I should me good to go.
Thanks for your input!

What Firmware is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?
Can you access it if you disable Circle?

Netgear has a user forum specifically for Disney Circle users. Somebody there may have a solution.

Firmware is up to date, just checked - V2.3.1.60
My orbi router is connected to a satellite internet provider - WiFi Hood. I guess it is in router mode. Have not have issues (that I can remember) with this site before, and do not have issues connecting to other web sites.
Just disabled Circle, and no,... still cannot access the web site. Wierd. Wonder if it is my satellite provider....? That will be my next step - I'll check with them.

Connect a PC directly to there modem and see if you get connected?
May need a factory reset and setup from scratch on the Orbi after updating to v60.

I have an email into WiFi hood and will see what they have to say. I'll circle back with their response.
