The WiFi analyzer will probably not tell you anything useful in trying
to solve this problem, and I doubt it has anything to do with WiFi at
all.
Any chance you could log on to the Pi and check CPU load when you have
your TV connected to the LAN. Perhaps the TV for some reason is pelting
your Pi

How can the tv lan connection be slowing down my sb network? Or is it

Why is the tv doing that to the pi??
Tested with homeplug turned off and had same effect on cpu load

Your TV could easily be causing interference to the Homeplug. Are you
able to temporarily remove the homeplug from the equation to test ?

The homeplug is a good 12 feet from the tv if you mean proximity

Also its not the tv being on that's the issue because If i unplug the
lan cable bit keep the tv on the interference goes.

Hi
first check if a copy job from one to another computer/nas is also
slowed down when the TV is plugged in.
This is a check i just your internet is slowing down or your whole
network.
Also check the IP settings, is a reference to a dns server in the TV ip
settings?
IS this DNS Server
Are the QoS settings in the router giving the TV priority over
everything else ?

You need to start testing systematically. Remove the homeplug from the
equation by disconnecting. Temporarly move NAS to near your router, etc.
With the homeplug out, does the TV still cause problem? If so, its not
the homeplug setup, etc. If its not the homeplug, my next step would
probably be

If having all 4 ports used cause problems, something is VERY wrong with

No that is the odd thing. .tv is connected via ethernet to lan.

No it should not , the TV is still connected to the wifi at the same

Check so that you dont get into any ip address conflicts . if you use
static ip somewhere make sure
