What channel configurations are currently set on the router?
Is Smart Connect Enabled or disabled?
Is this the only item that has problems on 5Ghz?
Is all wifi feature options enabled under Advanced tab/Advanced/Wireless settings?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since FW was updated?
1. Channel is set to AUTO for 4G and 36 for 5G. I have tried Auto for 5G as well
2. Smart connect is disabled (No check)
3. This is the only item (OBS) that I have tried that has this problem. The same application with the exact same settings performs just fine on the 4G
4. Correct all boxes are ticked.

2. Smart connect is disabled (No check) Enable Smart Connect and test.
3. This is the only item (OBS) that I have tried that has this problem. The same application with the exact same settings performs just fine on the 4G. I'd contact the Mfr about this since this seems to be the only item having problems and see if they can help out on this.
4. Correct all boxes are ticked. What happens if you disable AX mode check boxes on the Basic/Wireless settings tab for both 2.4 and 5Ghz?
Do you have IPv6 enabled in your router configuration?
Does your ISP support IPv6?
Who is your ISP?
Are you using the default DNS from your ISP or have you configured some of the public DNS like Cloudflare, Google, Open DNS, or similar?
