Nighthawk AX8 cable modem router and Orbi RBR50 blocking sites and apps from connecting

After installing a new Nighthawk AX8 cable modem router and connecting it to my existing Orbi RBR 50 set normal and harmless websites are being blocked and ask for passwords, or 404 errors occur.  Also, after rebooting my fire stick several times that finally got the TV to work, but it randomly gets kicked off the network.  Also, the ATT-TV apps won't work on most devices and not at all on another TV.

 

i have Spectrum WiFi and there is nothing wrong with the WiFi.  I've done all of the obvious things like re-starting all devices, modem, etc.  I also went into the Orbi app and cant see where anything is blocked.  Any ideas?

Which AX8 cable modem router did you install? 

After the install, did you put the orbi in access point mode? 

otherwise you'd have a double nat setup.
