2x 2016 Vizio Chromecast TVs that both lose their connection to Orbi RBK50

2x 2016 Vizio Chromecast TVs that both lose their connection to Orbi RBK50

Since install, both Vizio Chromecast TVs lose their connection between TV watching sessions.

 

Toggling the TV on/off/on using a remote or unplugging the TV and plugging it back in allow it to reconnect, but then it will lose it's connection again within a few hours. 

 

The trouble is that I did a firmware update when I connected the TVs to my new Orbi. Everything else on the new network are working much much better.

 

Any suggestions for a troubleshooting process to get this issue nailed down and fixed?

 

Thanks!

Erik

I returned the Orbi and went with a different system that is working.

Thanks!
