Cannot send email using WIFI
I cannot send email when using our ORBI 53 WIFI router. Used my iPhone as a hotspot and it worked fine. Also works when I'm on a different WIFI. It had been sending and receiving just fine until a few day ago. Had the same problem with a proir Netgear WIFI model.

Re: Cannot send email using WIFI
Would help to know the mechanism used to send email: Desktop? Laptop? Windows? Mac? Tablet? Phone? Wired to Orbi LAN port? WiFi to Orbi? Which email program: Web browser? Outlook? Gmail? etc.
Is email the only thing that fails? (i.e. web browsers are OK, WiFi printers work OK)

Re: Cannot send email using WIFI
What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?

You might contact your ISP and ask them about email settings and any email troubleshooting help with email. If you can receive email and not send, there is probably a configuration issue in email or on the device.
