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?

I would consult with Google about that error as they would know more about that since it there product.

  I don't understand how the Nest Mini worked on this setup until I removed it. It's been working with the Orbi for almost 2 months now. When I first added it, I was using the Linksys Velop Mesh network, then I moved to the Deco mesh network and now the Orbi 970. It worked fine on all three of them but and I never had an issue removing and then readding it until the Orbi network.
  
  Thanks again for help out!

    From pg. 112 of the Technicolor model user manual:
    
    Is my answer in here somewhere? Sorry, I'm trying but I'm not a networking pro by any measure. LOL Thanks!
    
    "12 Isolation
    By default, the Technicolor Wireless Gateway allows traffic to pass freely between CPE devices
    on the same logical network. This behavior may not be desirable in certain types of deployments
    where devices associating with the Wireless Gateway may belong to different
    persons/households (examples: public hotspots, hotels, and multi-dwelling units). For these
    deployments, the appropriate isolation modes should be enabled. This feature causes the
    Wireless Gateway to block traffic sent between CPE devices.
    12.1User Provisioning for Isolation
    No user provisioning is available for this feature. This feature must be provisioned by the
    operator using SNMP.
    12.2SNMP Provisioning for Isolation
    Isolation can be configured separately for any, and all of the following types of traffic:
    • Traffic in which both the source and destination addresses are reachable via the same
    primary or secondary BSSID (WLAN-WLAN traffic)
    Isolation for WLAN-WLAN traffic:
    Isolation for WLAN-WLAN traffic is controlled via the tchRgDot11BssApIsolation MIB object.
    This is an interface-specific MIB which must be appended with the appropriate interface index of
    the BSSID that is being configured for isolation.
    Index Interface
    32 Primary BSSID
    33 Secondary BSSID #1
    34 Secondary BSSID #2
    35 Secondary BSSID #3
    36 Secondary BSSID #4
    37 Secondary BSSID #5
    38 Secondary BSSID #6
    39 Secondary BSSID #7
    This means that different BSSIDs may have different isolation settings. For example, it is
    possible to leave isolation disabled on the primary BSSID, while setting up a secondary BSSID
    for hotspot services that has isolation enabled.
    The default setting for this MIB is integer 0 (disabled) for all SSIDs. To enable WLAN-WLAN
    traffic isolation, set this MIB to 1 (enabled).
    This setting is effective in the device configuration file as well as when set via SNMP (If set via
    SNMP, the setting will persist across device reboots). If SNMP is used, setting
    tchRgDot11ApplySettings to true (1) is required for the change to take effect (as is the case
    with other tchRgDot11 MIB settings when set via SNMP).
    1/8/2018 Proprietary and Confidential - Technicolor 113
    Example:
    To provision complete isolation between Ethernet ports and the primary SSID, The following
    would be added to the CM config file:
    SnmpMibObjecttchRgDeviceLanLanIsolation.0 Integer 1; /* enable */
    SnmpMibObjecttchRgDeviceLanWlanIsolation.0 Integer 1; /* enable */
    SnmpMibObjecttchRgDot11BssApIsolation.32 Integer 1; /* enable */"
