Unable to open websites via 2nd Router used as an Access point
Hi everyone,
I have two routers in my home, the main Netgear, and then a Belkin dual band AC router, used as an access point. From the access point, I have two wired connections, 1 going to my pc, the 2nd going to an Amazon Fire Stick, and then the wifi from the AP I was using for my tablet and smart phone. It's all worked flawlessly for years. A couple days ago, I purchased a new tablet and smart phone, and here's where my problems begin. I can connect both devices to the AP no problem, and can even watch twitch and youtube, but if I want to pull up a website, both devices will hang. If I switch either device to the Wifi from the main router in the house, they pull up websites no problem. I should also mention, wifey has a laptop connected to the same AP, and has no issues whatsoever. It appears to be only the new devices this problem occurs with. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate them.

Steps I've taken:
Power cycled both routers
Flushed DNS
Ran network troubleshooter
