R6400v2 problem with 5ghz wifi
Hello,
Wifi 5ghz is working only 50cm from the router, and event then signal is very bad. I tried hardware reset, different firmware etc. Nothing helped. Anyone has this problem? 2,4ghz is working very good.

You need to rule them out before you can confirm that the router is the issue.
- Krycha00AspirantAbout half of devices on my home was connected via 5ghz, and one day suddenly i got info on All od them "there is no wifi". I tried to connect different devices and everytime is the same - i have to put laptop/mobile next to the router (or even on router) to have any info about the 5ghz wifi. 1m from router there is no more signal.
Have you tried changing the wifi channel?
Tried a factory reset?
Or even reinstalling the firmware, then doing a factory reset?
