You may wanna try disabling and enabling SSID broadcast on the 5ghz. When you access the router page, look for the 5ghz and uncheck it then click Apply. After it's done saving, enable SSID broadcast once again.
If the same thing happens, reflash the firmware of your router.

actinia Ensure WMM is enabled on the router, (Macs need it) close the Genie app, on your Mac. Genie can cause numerous perfomance issues on the router. When you logon to the router, use a browser.
WMM was enabled. I´ll kill the Genie app and only use the browser..
