CAX80 can't upload 5GHZ
Im having serious issues trying to get this figured out, ive tried playing with everything for teh last 6 hours to get my uploads to work in 5ghz mode. Im literally 25 feet from the router and any fi...
Firmware version 5.1.1.2 is what everyone needs to push for to be released.
Just updated and no luck. STILL have issues uploading to websites like Wetransfer.
However now dropbox is cool to upload to? now im super confused.
help.
I have the exact same issue. Whether using Linux, macOS, Windows 11, iOS or Android on 5 GHZ on my CAX80 I am unable to upload anything to iCloud or any other cloud server. This is very annoying and I haven't changed anything . Rebooted the router several times.
What FW version are you using?
Seems to be a problem with 5Ghz on current version, so you might try reverting back a version of FW on the CAX80.

FURRYe38 I am on V2.1.3.5. The initiater of this thread was on previous firmware version when he was unable to upload on 5 GHz and the upgrade to V2.1.3.5 didn't resolve his issue.
Another thing I noticed is that upload is only blocked on (any) browser, not on cloud services like iCloud Drive or DropBox.And last: I rebooted the router yesterday and was able to upload on 5 GHz for a while and then it got blocked again.
You can try going back to first version of FW and see if this helps. If not, I recommnend you contact NG support and let then know what your seeing:
