While this may have been a solution, what ended up happening is my Mac and Iphone both stopped connecting to the Wifi all together once I unchecked the 5G box. I then was no longer able to login to orbilogin.net no matter what browser I used or how far back I cleared the caches. So I ended up having to reset my entire network and try rebuilding it fresh, which, for some reason also didn't go well and had to be redone multiple times.
Ultimately, these cameras (one Netvue and one Yi system) should have set up as easily as my Ring doorbell did. So until there's one out there that does, I'm not even bothering.
Thanks for the attempts to help for those that answered.
