using the netgear genie app for the computer, it shows the link rate between the s6 and and network as 24Mbps. the samsung tv i have connected to the network shows 866Mbps. the tv is connected to the 5Ghz. When I connect the s6 to the 5Ghz the link speed is 866Mbps as well, however the load times on apps like reddit or facebook or the google homepage on the internet browser are extremely slow. about 1 to 2 minutes to load if that, sometimes pictures or whatever is on facebook will not load. just tested again on a free wireless network at a mall today and wifi loaded everything no problem.

Hello helpme2
I know that other people have been having issues with Samsung S6 and S7 phones on wifi our engineers are aware of it and have been trying to pinpoint the issues to find a fix. i will let everyone know if I hear more on what the issues are.
