Nighthawk C7800 5GHz stops working
Hi all, My C7800 frequently drops the 5GHz wifi while 2.4GHz continues to work. The only way to resolve is generally power cycling the router. I've verified this isn't an individual device issue. All...
Looks like I had it set in the 40s from my last attempt. Will switch over to 153 and see how we fair.

Is your radio frequency environment crowded? Like a lot of neighbors with Wi-Fi transmitters?
- Yeah I would say it's crowded. Maybe not apartment complex crowded but many single family homes in close proximity without trees or much in between. I can see something around 15 to 20 access points around me. A quick check on a wifi analyzer app indicates around seven 5GHz signals <100dBm. Each are a spread across all available channels that I can select from in the C7800 available channels.
