Samsung TV cant join Orbi Wifi
Orbi RBR750, 2 satellites (1 of them inches away from the TV) Firmware V4.6.9.11_2.3.5 While I did see other posts about this, they seem to be over 1 year old... The Samsung TV can join oth...
I was finally able to connect.
Used the normal password with special characters, connecting to the satellite.
After I setup the static IP and configured it, I got the same error. I left the room and forgot to write down the error message. I returned and setup the same static IP and worked this time!
I restarted the TV a bunch of times, rescanned the wifi etc and seem to stay on and work with the static IP.

yes there are special characters. I did setup a hotspot from the phone with same password and the TV was able to connect to the hotspot.
I manually assigned an high IP to the TV. I do have a bunch of other IP reservations for other devices.
Sadly the TV just gives a very generic could not connect error.
For now plugging an ethernet cable from the satellite to the TV does work, but ideally I would want to use the wifi or at least know why it doesnt work.
Can you try using a tempoary generic Password on the Orbi system just to see if the TV connects? Try password123. Change this back to your normal PW.
