Own 2 identicle chromebooks. One connects the other cannot

Hi. I have the Orbi 6 fully updated. When I first started it both my chromebooks would not connect. I ran the accepted Orbi solution of changing the CTS/RTS to 2347. That worked for a while. Now my problem is one of my chromebooks connects with no problems, the other will not.

I looked at the advanced settings and the only difference is the one that is working states it is on frequency 5240. The one that doesn't work is on frequency 2422 (I can't change this).

Other relevant info. Orbi and Chromebooks are fully updated, been restarted many times. I'm at wits end, please help.
