Hi there,
I am having the same issue.
I cannot change my 5GHz signal to 'Short Preamble'. It remains locked on 'Long'. This issue does not occur for the 2.4GHz network.
Is there a setting that could be prohibiting the router from changing to Short Preamble for 5GHz?
I'm hitting this again in the hope that someone at Netgear may see it and respond. Since the most recent firmware updates my RA80 has been stable and fast, as I would have hoped when purchasing (good job at fixing those bugs, finally!)

Any answers?
