Costco CAX30 Router
I got an email stating that my CAX30 router might have a problem connecting to the internet. I checked and had my traffic meter already cleared. I'm guessing that with that, I'm good. I have not had ...

Then you should be good and I wouldn't worry about it.

This is going to sound dumb but, I seemed to have lost my 5Mzh Wifi. I've lost it on my Android phone and my AC1200 USB 3.0. I see and can connect to my 5Mzh guest connection, but the regular 5Mzh doesn't show up. I've had absolutely no issues from date of purchase to the last week.
Ideas????
Thanks for the help.

did you try a factory reset?
Or try downgrading the firmware on the router?- DannyS22Feb 27, 2023Guide
I have not. I will do that now. When I first got the router someone here suggested to change the channels. I need to go back and find that reply to double-check my settings.
THANKS for the reply and help.

No firmware update available. A couple of things I noted; Smart Connect is ENABLE, Enable Wireless Gateway Radio Fragmentation Length is at max 2346, CTS/RTS Threshold 2347. I don't know if those things matter. I changed the 5.0Ghz channel from 48 to 36. I did a REBOOT from the web access. Now I can't access the router from the web or the app even though I have internet access (as I'm typing this).
I still don't show 5.0Ghz network access, only the guest network on 5Ghz that are available either on my Android or the PC.
I guess my next option is to push the reset on the back of the router and hope for the best.
Thanks for the help

I did a router reset and now all my wifi networks show up as available. So I see how this works for now,
I REALLY APPRECIATE your help. Thank you
