Only other thing you can try is turning down the power output of the RBRs wifi radios from 100% to 50% and see if this changes anything. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Other than this, no. Ensure the sound bar device is placed as far away from the RBR or RBS as possible.
- ZeusyZeusJun 12, 2020AspirantYeah tried that already unfortunately didn’t fix the issue. I was on the phone 1 hour with Samsung tech support and they said they’ve never even heard this before. It’s so weird. Minute I unplug the soundbar speeds are 220+ mbps soundbar plugged in 1-7mbps. I guess I’ll replace it with a Bose unit, hopefully I won’t run into the same issue. Thank you for your help.

Good Luck.
- ZeusyZeusJun 12, 2020AspirantThanks. Hey Fury one last question is there a way to check which channels are heavier congested? I live in an apartment building and I’ve noticed some times of the day my internet is slower. Everything I checked online didn’t work for me and I don’t have an Android.
