cannot disable broadcast of 6GHz SSID on RS700S
Hi,
Because none of my devices support 6GHz, I want to disable broadcast of that SSID. I uncheck 'Enable SSID Broadcast' for the 6GHz network under WIreless Setup, and click on Apply. Inevitably, on future visits to the router pages, I see that 'Enable SSID Broadcast' is once again checked for the 6GHz network. Thanks.

It now appears that the 'Enable SSID broadcast' is staying unchecked for the 6GHz network, which is what I wanted.
Sorry for wasting people's time!

Is the Front 6Ghz LED turn OFF and remain OFF after you disable the 6Ghz SSID network?

Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
