orbi rbr20 won't talk to win10 tablet
i have an orbi AC2200 rbr20 connected to a surfboard modem to comcast.
my windows 10 desktop connects to it fine via wifi, but when i try to use my win10 tablet i don't see the internet.
i ran windows network diagnostics, it says:
your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (DNS server) is not responding.
i can connect the tablet to a different access point without a problem.

What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?What mfr and model# tablet do you have?
IF other devices are working with your Orbi, and the one tablet isn't, possible issue at the tablet.
Is the Tablet getting IP and DNS addressing from the Orbi?
Are you using any custome DNS or letting the Orbi auto detect DNS from your ISP?
