I hope I have the answers you are looking for but here it goes
1. Im not sure how to check the firm Ware But I belive I have the latest version

5. I belive for the 2.4GHZ Its "WPA2-PSK [AES]" with channel 06 and mode 347 mbps And I can also increase it to 800 mbps but when I do a little popup comes up. And the 5GHZ is "WPA2-PSK [AES]" with channel 48 and mode 1733 mbps
6. I have Enabled WMM (I think) and Beamforming and MIMO. But the only way to activate them was to turn off "Smart Connect
I can also send screenshots if need be

I dont know if this changes anything but the wifi is not the problem. its the upload speeds going to my computer are not stable at all while im streaming
