Orbi RBR50v2 and ESPN +, Hulu, and Disney+
Hello, First time poster here who has already spent some time with the ESPN plus folks trying to figure out why the wifi is suddenly incompatible with these services. I am getting error message...

What ONT do you have?
Have you tried a different DNS?
Here's a few. Also remember to change the ipv6 dns server if ipv6 is enabled.
CloudFlare
IPv4: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
IPv6: 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1111 and 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1001
GoogleDNS
IPv4: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
IPv6: 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8888 and 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8844

Thanks so much. Will take a look this evening. I’m hoping I can implement the suggestions here successfully. One thing I forgot to mention previously is that the Disney plus people did say they were noticing we were having connectivity/bandwidth issues on our end. Though I’m regularly getting upload and download speeds of 800 mpbs. I just tried the apps out at my office which is 2 miles down the road from our house and uses the same ISP so it’s not the provider and has something to do with the settings on our router.

What modem/gateway is it connected to?

Well. I finally found some time to get logged into the server to see what was happening. Began to review logs and tried to make sense of some of the settings. While logged into the server I decided to try accessing ESPN plus on my phone and it suddenly worked. Hulu and Disney plus also working. I didn’t change anything. 3 hours ago everything was not working. So I have no explanation. But things are fine. As you guys stated, it points to some weirdness with the Disney ecosystem. Thanks for all the help. I appreciate the suggestions and hopefully they will help someone else if they run into the same problems. Thanks so much.
