I want to thank everyone for the feedback but none of the suggestions worked for me.
But all is not lost. This morning I continued to focus on the MacBook Pro since all other devices were working just fine. I was sucessful in fixing the problem with long delays or no response to websites. After several tries the fix ened up being a curupt wifi module. I corrected it by the following steps.
Click om the apple menu and select system prefference then network
Click on advance and selecte the wifi module and click on the - button and apply
Close the network menu and reboot your computer
After reboot go back to networks and click on advance nd click on the + button
From the menu select wifi and click apply
Next reconnect to your network and you should be up and running.
I hope this helps you becuase it saved me taking out the ORBI system
