2019 Samsung TVs not connecting to 5GHz on Orbi (RBK50)
Hey I have about 18 wireless devices connected to an RBK50. All of them except 2 are connecting as expected (5GHz capable devices connect at 5Ghz unless they are really far then they connect at 2.4GH...

Just discovered I am having the same issue with my Nintendo Switch Game Console. Nintendo sees my neighbors 5GHz bands, but it only sees my Orbi's 2.4GHz band.

If the TV can't see the 5 GHz network, then the TV -most likely- does not support the channel which Orbi currently uses for that band. Which radio channel are you urrently using for 5 GHz?
Please change to another 5 GHz channel in Orbi and try.
