I have a smart plu ha says that I need to use a 2.4 g network.  How do I identify and get to that option on this router?  I also have an extender halfway through the house.  Right now I am only seeing the home_2.4etttttx and the home_5ext

    Review the Wireless settings on the routers web page. 

    You can disable Smart Connect if you want to have separate WIFI SSID names for each frequency. 

    Turn OFF the extender so it won't interfere while your checking on this.
