Contact the Mfr of that WAN Checkpoint device.
Put the WAN checkpoint device IP address it gets from the Orbi into the Orbi's DMZ.

Thanks, marking the checkpoint as the DMZ didn't work, still need to NAT. Just to be clear this issue is NOT specific to the checkpoint, I can swap the checkpoint for cisco device and have exactly the same issue. HOWEVER if I swap the orbi out for, example, a draytek or cisco device it works.
I assume Orbi is dropping traffic that isn't part of it's "LAN" range.

What happens if you use the Orbi system in AP mode?
