Orbi RBR750 not allowing podcast

I am having an issue with my Orbi RBR750 not allowing Apple podcasts to play on wifi.  It is also blocking a certain website from loading.

 

If I go to cell data on my phone everything works fine but when I am attached to the network, nothing.

 

I'm not a wifi genius so if anybody has any suggestions let me know.

Thanks

    What Firmware version is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
    Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended. 

     

    How many RBS are deployed? 
    What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
    What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR📡 and RBS🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected

     

    Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers while at home:
