I recently changed to a X10 and had previous wireless roaming setup. The 2.4 band is fine. However with Netgear wifi analystics app I can See 2 different 5ghz bands. They are named Identical. Anyone ...

Hi itskamel,
The R9000 does not support wireless roaming. It will be listed as a different network even if you name it same as other networks.

Hi itskamel,
On your device network settings, can you detect two 5Ghz?

Hi itskamel,
Your computer should support AD connection for you to able to connect to the 2nd 5Ghz.

So its created automatically? but named the same? no where to change the name of the 2nd 5ghz network?
I am currently showing 2 5ghz networks. the 60hz network is named with a -60hz on the end of it. are you refering to the 60hz network?

The r9000 has band one is a 2.4 ghz band, band two is a 5 ghz band, band three is a 60ghz AD band. Here is a link for the product sheet of the router look at page 13
