      Beside firmware question - i have terrible signal on 5ghz wifi from this router. I'm standing 3m from router and signal strenght You can see on attached screen. Mobile devices are switching wifi internet to mobile data because of week signal. I bought this router to use mostly 5ghz wifi but its impossible. Changing FW didnt change antything, also parameters, channels etc. Changing antennas positions didnt change signal also. There are no other 5ghz wifi in my home.
