I have successfully connected both 2.4 and 5 GHz on the EX7500 to RBR50.  Is that right configuration?  Should I connect only 5 GHz only to make it as a fastlane?  By the way, my laptop sometimes keeps the WiFi connection, but it losts the Internet connection for seconds.  It's anything wrong for my configuration?

    If you are seeing speed issues you can try fastlane to improve that.

        I was wrong the ex7500 does not have fastlane as it is already using a dedicated band to connect to the router so its already fastlane in a sense.
