WiFI6 not showing on any devices that are compatible
Good morning, I have the new RAXE500 router upgraded from the XR500 and no matter what I do, I cannot get the WiFi6 network to show up. I know this is a WiFi6e router and I do not have any compatible...

Thank you for clearing all of that up, it's odd they call it WiFi6 when it runs off of 2.4ghz and 5ghz and WiFi6e runs on 6ghz?? Makes perfect sense. Thanks again for you help, at least I am good for the next few years.
