AC1900 WiFi Range Extender 2.4g work but 5g says no connection
So, i have the extender setup and 2.4g is connecting to the internet but 5g says no connection. I was on the latest firmware 1.0.1.112 but reverted back to an older version with no success. Any idea...

that "no connection" you see on the status page? That means there isn't a device (phone/tablet, etc) connected to the extenders 5ghz.

Thanks I see your point. I can connect to the 5g from the basement maybe because it's farther away from the router?
But I can't connect to the extender by choice when I am upstairs closer to the router. Not sure I understand it all but it works for those devices farther away
