Netgear AX1800 RAX10 latest firmware doesn't give 5G SSID out

After I downloaded the latest firmware, I am not able to see the NETGEAR20-5G, but only "NETGEAR20" alone. I haven't enabled the settings to combine these two. Even after the router reset, the issue still persist (the same firmware version is present). Unable to find the old firmware also. Not sure about to get the 5 GHz band back in the router.

  • Maybe after the upgrade the smart connect option was enabled? 

    that combines the 2x ssid's into one and band steers devices between them. 

    Have you logged in through the browser and checked that?
