Oct 04, 2020RAX50 AX5400 question 2
Why would one iPhone be on 2.4ghz and the other on 5ghz? They are exactly the same except for color. I do not have smart connect enabled and cannot seem to enable it. But that has to do with only 5gh...

I'd be more likely to trust the browser than the app. But I can't say which it is without actually being there and doing a scan.
Just asking which is right is basically a 50/50 option based on the info you've given.
You can always disable it through the browser and see what happens to the wireless signals.
I'm a fan of using smart connect but you dont' have to.

Oct 05, 2020When I login through the app, it says smart connect is not enabled. When I log in through my browser it says it is. Which is correct?

Well, the app still vascillates back and forth, but I am also a fan of direct login. I disconnected and reconnected my phone and it's now on 5ghz. Thanks for your answers.
