Jeff,
I'd took a look at this thread for properly configuring the ATT device in passthrough.

Thanks so much for the reply and support. I read through https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/b1x5l6/how_to_properly_configure_the_arris_bgw210_for/ and I have the same setup as it. So DHCP on both the Arris and Orbi are Ok. as long as the networks don't overlap, causing a double NAT. The Arris is on giving out 1 IP address and that's to the Orbi, all other IPs, some 60 of them are being handled by the Orbi.
Everything is rung fine, with the exception that I can no longer access a server name directly for my Polish and have to use its IP address.
So I'll close this as a solution and continue to follow up on the DHCP name issue.

Try putting the netgears IP address in the BGW210's dmz.

Thanks,
The Arris is setup with it giving out only an IP address for the Orbi due to the MAC address in the passthrough config pointing to it.
Appreciate it.
