Well this is completely the opposite to what I expect and the dir-850L
I got it working. The lg tv sees the nas oddly by turning off upnp on the orbi.

However with the exact same setup but replacing the dlink with the Orbi I cannot see the synology device in the list of devices when trying to connect from the LG tv.
All other devices can see the nas however they don’t rely on the media server. The media server is using upnp.
The LG tv also says multicast must be supported.
Anyone come across the same issue?
I can put specs and screen shots if required.

Maybe use to the Synology Media server already having uPnP service running?
Glad you figured it out.

- Good point. I’ll check and report back.
- I think you are right. It’s nice to tie up loose ends like why works with upnp off on the router. Cheers.
