A6210 5GHz channels
Hello, I am in Europe, I bought a Samsung S9+ phone, and when I am using it as a hotspot at 5GHz, my Netgear A6210 USB dongle does not see it. It used to work fine at 5 GHz with the Xiaomi Mi Mi...
I think I managed to solve my problem, at least on the Netgear front.
The 1.0.0.39 drivers have a very primitive interface in Device Manager. I stumbled upon this post by Das1996 who showed what to change and in what registry key to compensate for for dumbed down interface. I changed my CountryRegionABand from 4 to 7 and it started seeing the S9+ emitting at 5GHz.
Posting this in case someone has the same issue.
