RBR850 Separate DHCP

I disabled the DHCP server on my Orbi router and re-enabled the separate DHCP server I had been using before the Orbi was installed.  Packets are not getting to the new DHCP server.  Any idea what's going on?

    Check the configuration of the host server.

    Ensure the yelllow LAN port is being used to connect the RBR to your host server if your host router is connectec to the ISP modem. 

    Try AP mode on the RBR.
