RBR40: Devices slow to connect.

My Orbi is fast and reliable, with one exception. All devices are delayed to connect. Roku TV's take 30-60 seconds when powered on, and sometimes I have to manually connect. My phone shows it connects immediately, but takes up to a minute before Internet is available. Notification from my Ring doorbell are delayed, sometimes by as much as 5 minutes.

Orbi is in router mode, connected to a cable modem (not router).

This suggestion has helped, but not solved the problem.  Devices are typically connecting faster, but I still occassionaly will have an extended delay.
