netgear RS700S router and 320MHz

Question

Hello. I have the RS700S router. I have intel Killer BE1750xw wifi card capable of handling 320MHz.

I have searched my RS700S router in 192.168.1.1 for an area that I can set it to 320Mhz. Does anyone out there know what to do to set the RS700S to 320MHz ?? I have the latest netgear firmware V1.0.7.96. I have 1.2Gigs fiber-optic internet service. So how do I set the 320MHz in my router? Thanks, Matt

Right, basically "Up to xxxGbps" is the place to set different bandwidth.
&nbsp;
From the router's web GUI, go to Wireless page from the Basic tab, go to the 6GHz section (320MHz is only supported on the 6GHz),and then check the Mode setting under the Channel setting:

"Up to 11.5Gbps" means 320MHz, "Up to 5.8Gbps" means 160MHz, which is also the max speeds for the 5GHz (since 5GHz doesn't support the 320MHz bandwidth).
If you use the same SSID for all the 3 bands (2.4/5/6GHz), it will not be easy for you to tell if you are connected to the 6GHz. Disable the Smart Connect (on the same page) and set different SSID for the 6GHz band to make sure you are connected to the 6GHZ band.

Hello. In the RS700S manual, it lists the 320MHz but I cannot find any area in 192.168.1.1 where I can select the 320MHz.

With the RS700S being Wifi 7 capable, it should handle 320MHz. This RS700S has out-performed all my expectations. I don't understand why netgear has not provided for selecting the 320MHz.

Thanks, Matt

What happens if you disable Smart Connect and check the Up To Speed seen on the RS web page under Basic tab/wireless settings?

I don't have the RS700 but with the other devices, you set your channel bandwidth with the "up to ****mbps" speeds&nbsp;
what do you have your set for?&nbsp;
