Can't see 6E wifi (RAXE500)
Hello, I recently purchase this router and it is working great. However, I just built a Gigabyte Aorus Master X570s that support Wifi 6E. However, I can't even see the 6E SSID for this network....

It was a fresh W10 install with the new MB. However, I went ahead and did an in-place upgrade to Windows 11 and it found it with no problems. So either I will stick with W11 or revert back to W10 for now and upgrade later.
At least I know it does work as I have no other devices with 6E...four iPhones 13 and a new MS Surface Studio laptop and not one 6E device. lol
Thanks all for your feedback and help.

Built in Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX210 160MHz. I am using Win10 most recent version (21H1).

did you ever have to install the regedit patch to get the AX210 seeing 6ghz?
I've seen that cause issues after upgrading windows to the later release.
When it happened to mine, i had to delete the driver and the regedit I made. Then did a reinstall of the driver.
