I recently got Netgear Orbi and connected it to the tv via Wi-Fi and the tv takes about a minute or so to connect.
I assume that this is a smart TV that is connecting to the WiFi from whatever Fios you had and that you have now removed the Fios from the network.
Is it just the TV that is slow to connect to the WiFi?
And when the TV is "off" is it just sleeping and still connected? Most are these days.
Is there maybe a setting on the tv or maybe in the Orbi app I can adjust to have it always be connected?
I'd look at the TV. I avoid WiFi where possible. (Powerline suits me better.) But I do know that TVs can be sensitive to network settings. Did you take your TV through the network configuration routine when you changes WiFi sources?
