When the Orbi is set to Access Point (AP) mode, the primary router makes all IP assignments. Was the NAS set up with specific IP address in the HG633 router? Actually, since neither the television nor the NAS are likely to "come and go", my preference would be to set up IP addresses for both of them in the HG633. I do that for my printers as well.
Do you have a way to scan the local network and figure out the IP address of all your devices?
