Something to try that might cause you to have to reset the router is put it in access point mode.
Access point mode disables all its routing functions and leaves whatever is on the other end of your apartments "connection" to manage the routing functions. See if it works.
If it doesn't and you can't access the router, you'd need to factory reset to get back in.
If it does it either means a double nat is causing it (the apartments routing and the orbi's routing) or something in the netgear is blocking it.

I have tried that. Doesn't work.
As all wired devices work fine with Multiroom I suspect it to be something with the WIFI.

We're checking to see if the apartment system is causing issues as well. Do devices still work? Just not the wifi based ones?

The solution is working great with the wired devices. Spotify Connect and all services are working fine with multi-room and when I "expand" the sound to the other device that works with all the devices that are hardwired. So I guess it has nothing to do with the switch in the basement? It's only for the wifi devices. The sound start playing on the "master" device but when I try to expand to another device - nothing. The sound is only playing on the master device.
