No internet connection for Samsung TV

Hey

When i try to connect my Samsung TV Qled7 to my new Orbi RBK40 Wifi the TV setup wizzard cannot connect to internet. There is no problem with the Wifi connection.

 

I also got another problem with the Orbi... The connection to my Apple TV is working ... almost.. when i try to play movies it failed. There is no problem using the other apps etc Youtube... only the Apple movies.

    Are the Samsung and the Apple TV connecting to the satellite or the main router?  Are these devices using 2.4 ghz or 5 ghz?  (The attached devices list in the router UI will tell both of these things).

     

    While you are there, check that the quality of the backhaul is "good".   You might also try running a speedtest through the satellite - the best way to do that is to connect a laptop to it using ethernet.
