Multiple problems- RBR-50

I JUST SET UP THE ORBI RBR50 DEVICE AND I CANNOT GET MY PELOTON APP OR PANDORA TO RUN ON MY IPHONE WHEN I CONNECT TO THE ORBI NETWORK.  ANY SUGGESTIONS?

    Just curious, did you happen to use the _same_ SSID for both Uverse router and Orbi?

    Is DNS working?  For example, does YouTube app work?

      You may want to start at the beginning so people can help you.  Technical experts need more information such as:

       

      What type cable modem are you connected to?

       

      What firmware does your RBR50 have?

       

      How many satellites do you have?

       

      Does your phone really connect to Orbi or do you just think it is?

      Yes, Youtube app runs fine.  Peloton will start but the on demand videos will not play.  Pandora also starts but music doesnt play.

    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?

      I verified the firmware is at the most recent version (2.3.1.60)  I have a UVerse router, model 5268acfxn.

       

      The Orbi system was in router mode, I changed it to AP Mode.  No difference.  I turned off the wifi on Uverse router and it is now working.

       

      thanks for your help
