Nighthawk 5400
Replaced a linksys router with a 5400 and can’t get Dell laptop to see either band as an option. Kept name and password the same as linksys. Everything else in the house connected fine.

I have a feeling he unchecked "enable ax".
many laptops with intel chips have issues. Reason why is people rely on the manufacturer (lenovo/hp) or windows update to update the drivers. And they don't.
If you go to the chip manufacturer website of your wireless card, many times theres newer drivers that have fixed many issues with AX devices.
