Having Trouble with Apple TV - Have Tried Everything I Can Find

Configuration
1

I’m running HA in a container on AlmaLinux. I have tried adding my Apple TVs with the container having the --net=host setting. The Apple TVs are both set for Allow On Same Network. If I use the name or use the IP address, neither one works. However, several Govee Wifi Hygrometers were automatically added, and I’ve been able to add my Sony Bravia TV with zero issues. I’m using the latest container directly from HA. Anyone have any ideas what I could try?

Sorry, I left off the problem. When I search for the AppleTV, I get:

Do you have a combined WIFI on your network? IE the 5 and 2.4 bands using the same SSID?

yep! Apparently. I didn’t realize it. Should I shut one of those off?

Separate the networks, put 2.4 stuff on one ssid and 5 stuf on another, or at least I do that.
