Nighthawk R8000P No Connection with Disney+
Nighthawk AC4000 3x3 Tri-Band WiFi Router R8000P
Firmware v1.4.3.88
App Verstion 2.17.0.2193
I have had this router for 1 year and a week. I know that my complementary support is now invalid, and I don't wish to pay for customer support. As of a few weeks ago, I have been unable to connect to Disney+ while on WiFi. This is true for any device connected to the router. If I use only mobile data on my phone, it's no issue. If I use a VPN and my wireless internet at the same time, I have no issue. If I purely use my WiFi, neither my phone, TV, or desktop can access Disney+. No other website or streaming service on any device has any issues. Contacted my ISP and Disney+, and they both do not note any issues. Direct connection via ethernet from modem to TV enables Disney+ to work, so I know for a fact its my router. Is there some workaround anyone has discovered or knows of through settings that will enable my router to allow Disney+? Circle is not enabled for parental controls. It appears that the firmware is up-to-date. This is incredibly frustrating, and I would like to actually use the streaming service I paid for from the comfort of my couch.

No idea how or why, but as soon as I started this thread, everything magically worked again. I did absolutely nothing.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
