Samsung TVs do not support 5ghz connection. There is no separate network selection with the orbi routers and the routers software determines which network the device goes on. When I go into the router login and look at what network the TV is on it is on the 5ghz network for whatever reason. As soon as I remove this device my entire network operates as designed without issue. So unless you have a better explanation I don't know what else to say.

What samsung tv is it?
- CdhappzJan 18, 2022AspirantSamsung - 32" Class N5300 Series LED Full HD Smart Tizen TV. It is a 2018 model and samsung has stated like in the screenshot I shared from their own forum it will connect to the 5ghz network even though it needs 2.4ghz to function properly. It's a major failing on samsungs end and should be addressed. I just wanted others possibly having issues to be aware of this as a possibility.
