WIFI ISSUE (ax8 6000 router) cannot connect my laptop

I have bought new ax8 6000 router. I cannot connect my 2 laptop. It does not get any wifi signal from my new router. Strange thing is my old laptop I can get signal but new 2 laptop doesn't get any 2.4 ghz or 5ghz signal. If anybody knows about it please let me know.

    Disable the AX mode for the moment - WiFi settings.

        Glad it helped - pretty poor workaround, fine as long as you have no 80211ax (Wi-Fi 6) clients around, I must admit.
