You've got your channel set on a dfs channel.
when you change the ssid, make sure to have the 5ghz channel set on a non-dfs channel.

what router do you have?
You didn't include much info in that picture.
depending on the router, you might need to change you "up to...." speed so you can use the standard 80hz wide channels.
