Netgear C7000v2 and Apple

Hello, looking for help with this issue.

 

New C7000v2 (Modem, WiFI, Router Combo).  I have about 16 devices at home and they all work fine on Wired Network and WiFI, except for ANY Apple products (Iphone or IPad).  Even Iphones that come to visit have the same issue while on WiFI.

 

Iphone or Ipad will not connect to Tiktok.com or MSN.com and other websites but Youtube, CNN, Yahoo and other website work fine.  I reached out to Apple and they suggested I check their router setting and all are good.

 

Why is Apple (Iphone and Ipad) so sensitive and can't connect to those specific web sites.  Tiktok only shows black screen or Server error.  MSN shows white screen with butterly symbol but not content or Server error.

 

All websites are reachable while out of the house on other WiFI networks so only happening on my network with the C7000v2.

 

Thanks

      Thanks for your input. Already tired all those scenarios and none address why specific websites are unreachable and other are reachable on Apple products at my home Netgear WiFi.  Even tried LAN converter to Apple Plug to bypass WiFI and still have the same issues.  Only with Apple products.

        They may tell you to look at the router, when only Apple stuff breaks it does seem to point to something Apple at the core. 

         

        Another one that crops up here from time to time as the browsers people use. These are getting increasingly picky over security issues. For example, some fall over when you throw an "http" address at them. (They want to see "https".)

         

        Do the logs on the C7000v2 offer any clues?
