My device cant see the ORBI (RBK50)wifi network

I have a 2.4 GHZ dev that can not see my Orbi Network SSID when I scan for it. It can not see the main or guest network. Have tried the different security settings WPA2-PSK[AES] & WPA-PSK[TKIP], same result for both options. It worked with my 6300 just fine. I have many other devices that do connect but a few that do not. Am not sure why.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Try going into the GUI, Advanced, Advanced Setup, Wireless Settings and uncheck "Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence" This has allowed some of my 2.4G-only devices to connect to Orbi.
