I think it stinks that after paying $500 for the CAX80, that I really liked, Netgear released bad firmware making it useless and not caring how it affects their customers. They need to put more effort in technical support and admit when it is their fault.
MIght check with a forum moderator, there is a beta being made available for the CAX80 with 5Ghz issues.
