I Don't understand how the RS300 operates.
I have had the router for 3 days and have it set up and working, but I have some questions. At first, I couldn't connect to the 5G band. I changed the channel from auto to 153 and got that working. ...

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

I reset the router to the default setting,s then re-installed everything back in using the QR code and Nighthawk App.
Put in the same channel numbers and the problem I was having is gone and it's working great now.
Something got messed up the first time, what?? 🙄
