I would guess that the camera is far away from Orbi and that's why it selects the 2.4 GHz band. Have you checked in connected devices if it connects to the 2.4 or 5 GHz bands?
- One way to force the camera to choose the 5 GHz band is to reduce the transmission power of the 2.4 GHz band, can you please try that?
- Otherwise please make sure Implicit Beamforming is enabled which will boost wifi speed and range.
Also it seems that Arlo Q has N600 wifi which means that it supports MIMO. Please make sure that MU-MIMO is enabled in the advanced wireless settings.
I'd start by testing the Beamforming and MU-MIMO first and then go to test the Tx power reduction.
Good luck
