My iphone talks happily to my Harmony Hub when connected on 5Ghz, as they are all on the same network. The only way I can think off for it not to work is if you have some other Wi-Fi other than the Orbi providing a 2.4 connection to a different network, perhaps on your modem??

When I look on the orbi app it tells me my hub is on 2.4 and my phone is on 5.0. I called harmony and they said the harmony home hub and extender inly worl on 2.4. U do not know how to get the hub to connect to the 5.0 through the orbi. They are sitting less than 5 feet from each other so i know distance from the 5.0 is not the issue. Is there a setting that you used to get the hub to use orbis 5.0?
