UPDATE: I tried to connect again and this time it connected with no issues. My old wifi network does not show up on the Samsung TV so there does not appear to be a way for the TV to forget it. I did not mention in my original post that I also recently upgraded my xfinity service to 1G and I disabled the wifi on the new xfinity modem. So the old wifi SSID does not appear and neither does the new one (because it is disabled). So the only SSIDs that my TVs can see are the new main orbi and orbi guest SSIDs.
I checked my settings and the Beamforming and Fast Roaming are not enabled. I left them disabled. If it happens again I will report back. Thanks for your replies.

Ok.
At some point, try enabling Beamforming to see if this changes anything. :smileywink:
