Both names show up in the wifi connection selection box. When "-5G" is selected the imac preference network window shows that it is "connected", but in actual fact when I try and use the connection to acces a web site, I get, after a timeout period, a " network not connected". The preference box will still show that the connection is there and strong. As soon as I change the wifi choice to just "netgear64", not the "-5G" a connection is established the the web site will come up.
Does this give you a clue as to what is going on?
