Seems like this is the same issue we discussed in a separate forum. I have started using rbr850 as a router again as I needed to block port 25 and my vm superhub3 did not afford me this option.

I have run the superhub in modem mode and in router mode with DMZ enabled. Net result is the same. I have jut flushed DNS on my laptop which, appears to be behaving for now. Sadly though my TIVO v6 boxes fall out with each other if connected to the ORBI, so have had to connect them back up to the Superhub, hence DMZ and router setup currently

Ok, thanks for confirming.
