Tivo V125 error which means ORBI is blocking the connection between two tivos
RBR850 (not in choices above) One Tivo can't watch another tivo because ORBI is blocking it (just recently started). Anyone else? What could be causing it (rebooting no help)?

It may be easier to debug your iPhone (wireless) problem than your Orbi problem. Is your entire home network down or just wireless on your iPhone? When you say "everything else fine" are you saying that other devices in your household, wired and wireless, have internet access?
Situation was that my phone and any other new phone or table added to network would not be able to access the internet (round thinking symbol) even though ORBI is connected to internet. On my phone, even loading app says ORBI not found (and I am standing next to it).
Right now working...we will see.
As far as Tivos, now I see it has nothing to do with ORBI as the TIVOs are MOCA.
FYI, for any Apple phone or pads, disable the WiFi Private Address features on these devices. Apples new feature seems to cause problems around these devices getting connected to Orbi systems and other wifi routers.

I originally had Tivo's connected with MoCA. Tivo's have to get to the internet somehow. My setup included a MoCA adapter connected to the Orbi network. Worked great. But, I got tired of the tangle of wires and went to PowerLine. (Not sure that is any better, but I'm tired of messing with it.)
