Ring Live Stream Doesn't Work With Orbi

I have tried everything to get the Orbi to work correctly with Ring doorbell live stream. I tried the latest firmware / downgrading / installing the custom firmware from Voxel. I then tried everthing...

I noticed that it has been several hours and no one has posted a response.  Perhaps a "silly question", but does the Ring doorbell function correctly with the Ring app?  And, this is a "powered" Ring device, correct? (not battery)

    Yes. It works fine only the Orbi doesn’t work correctly with it. If I use my isps WiFi it works but I disabled that cause I really only wanted to use my Orbi in AP mode.

      Sorry I wasn't clear. Ring has an "app", correct? And in addition to the Echo, the camera app also fails?

        Yes both fail. Then sometimes both work. The issue with the Orbi is it’s very inconsistent with live view. Sometimes it loads. Sometimes it doesn’t.
