Not having much experience with the Orbi 'app', my solution would be to use the Orbi web interface (http://orbilogin.net).
Navigate to the Advanced Tab, Security menu, Block Services.
Add a rule for "Any" TCP/UDP. It should fill in all ports (1-65535) and then enter the IP address of this device.
Click Apply.
The way I understand it, this will cause the Orbi to block internet access from that one device using any TCP or UDP port.
p.s. While I adore how cute the Orbi 'app' is, I have yet to find an explanation for what that "Pause" slider actually means.
I understand the web interface (or at least I hope that I do.)
Can you give this a try and see what happens?
