Just to clarify the IP address I gave was an example but I would check the actual IP address and input while attempting to connect to the server. Also, in the Orbi tool, it recognizes my NAS and shows it in the list of devices connected.
Yeah, I tried, it still wont connect. I see my NAS in the connected devices list in the Orbi utility but it will not mount as a result of which I cannot access any of the files in the NAS.

real NAS units connected via ethernet dont need to mount as the hdd is mounted by the NAS unit
In Mac NAS is seen as a server that we connect to using the process shared earlier. As I said it works seamlessly with my Airport Extreme but not so with Orbi and I am not sure why. I have opened a case with Netgear and they have escalated it to Level 2 technician.
