Thanks, plemans. I suppose a scam wasn't outside the realm of possibility, but it seemed legitimate...
That's exactly what I was thinking, but I didn't want to hammer the poor girl from Netgear support too hard.
The only device that doesn't support 5GHz is the smart TV (which is surprising; it's a Samsung 55" that's only ~3 years old).
I'll give the factory reset a whirl and will post an update when I get around to it.
Thanks!
