Hello RastusB2
Try to put the 5Gz on the router to a lower channel then see if the 5Ghz will show up.

Darren, I decided to go ahead and look into this, while I have the time.
In the LinkSys router, I can't see where I can assign the channels.
In the NetGear Genie, I don't see any settings either. So, is this a manual setting on the AC1200 extender? If so. Ill have to wait till I get back home to set it.
Thanks

Hello RastusB2
It should be in the wireless settings of your router or the advanced wireless settings.
