MR6500 pro interfering with digital tv

Hi All. Just seeing if anyone else is having an issue or knows how I can eliminate the problem. The MR6500 pro is about 15m away from the tv, but continues to wash the digital picture out, notice it...

Is the tv running over a hardwired connection or wireless? 

What happens if you hardwire it in? 

Is it connected to the 2.4ghz or the 5ghz currently?

    This is interfering with the free to air TV channels,the unit is not connected to the TV, and is wifi around the house for only phones, ipads etc.
    Not using it to stream any TV channels.
