I have done a refresh rebooted the router with no luck
Where on the Orbi admin interface does it show devices "blocked"? Can you attach a screen shot?

\access control
"in line" images put into a post using the Photos icon do not appear to other users until approved by a forum moderator, which can take hours (and hours). images attached using the Browse button (lower left) are available immediately.
Is Access Control shows as "on" or "off"?
I believe that nothing can be done to items on the Access Control list until Access Control is "on". My work-around is to enable Access Control, change things around, and then turn it back off.
I keep hoping that someone will figure out my WiFi password and connect to my Orbi, but as the password is 25 characters long, it may take someone about 4 billion years to guess it by brute force. So, I leave access control "off".
