RS500 hidden advanced setting enables MLO
Not sure why Netgear chose to hide the advanced wireless settings revealed through the F12 browser display link mod. I can confirm that only the MLO setting works in my RS500 router when toggled ON, but the speeds seem to be worse with the Intel BE200 laptop wifi card with MLO enabled on the 5 and 6 Ghz bands.
Edit: Can't attach screenshot...due to media upload in progress error.

Here's the link to the wireless advances settings revealed after unselecting the "Display link : None" setting through F12 in Chrome.

can you post a link (URL) to information about this F12 mod?
Yes, the Community Forum "paste" function has been broken since the first of the year (12 weeks). Netgear said a fix was coming soon, but that was on Jan 20.
There is a work-around which involves putting the image on a cloud storage platform and then using the Camera Icon "From image URL" option.
Found the OP here and dug around to find the additonal hidden settings.
