I have a 2019 65-inch Samsung TV, UN65NU6900

This TV is connected to an OTA digital antenna, as well as the Samsung TV Plus channels via internet.

When using the Channel Guide, the Samsung TV Plus channels scroll smoothly, but the OTA channels stall out, with the "wait for it" circle spinning in the upper left corner until it catches up.

All my research thus far wants to tell me that the Channel Guide info comes through my internet and my issue is because of a slow internet connection. And I could accept this if the TV Plus channels were equally slow.
Besides, I have T-Mobile 5g internet with download speeds around 180Mbps, and uploads around 9Mbps.
And it doesn't matter if I'm connected Wirelessly or Wired, same slow OTA Channel Guide.

The fact that only my OTA channel are affected, leads me to believe the OTA Channel Guide info comes over the air (although I have good signal strength on OTA).

Can anyone confirm or deny this theory?
