My routers 5GHz doesnt have a channel 50 only 36,40,44,48 then goes to 52(dfs)i attached a screen shot, also i remembered what i disabled its called, MU-MIMO. Someone told that disabling this would help with the internet connecting issue it worked for a bit but it went back to lagging again after a few days. Also i live in LA so i donât know if the fires also have something to do with my connection. hope you al can help me with this issue đ
