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.
I don't have Smart Connect enabled cause I don't have the same SSID name for both 2.4 and 5. I have them as Name and Name Juiced.
I did set the 2.4 to channel 1 and the 5 to channel 48.
No change. I still can't upload more then like 20MB.
Also, I can't set my 5GHz to channel 149 as it only goes up to 128.
Can you try with Smart Connect enabled.
I tested mine out last year and was able to upload several gigs of data to a cloud site for testing thru the CAX80 with it's wifi enabled. Saw no issues other than seeing performance is slower on current FW which may have been put there by NG to help with debugging this issue.
Also, to help avoid having to get a entire different unit, one could set the CAX80 to modem only mode and install a external wifi router in mean time.
I have passed this on to NG for review.
