I tried those option but hard pressing wifi on /off on router and then also doing via. GUI. something weird It just got stuck with 60Ghz. Currently setup i have spectrum cable modem connected over gig to this X10. It worked when internet was setup. but something weird happened after fw upgrade. I did factory reset. downgrade to .28 and then .26 and .24 and finally got back to same as .36. For now I got tired took away all the cables and power cord.

Devices do fail. it does happen. 

Are you still within your warranty? 

After you changed firmware (downgraded) did you factory reset? 

Are you reinstalling from a backup configuration? If so, try a clean install (not using a backup).

Devices do fail. it does happen. Yes I get that  but all of sudden that too after fw upgrade is scary.

 

Are you still within your warranty? No

After you changed firmware (downgraded) did you factory reset?  yes I did that too.

Are you reinstalling from a backup configuration? If so, try a clean install (not using a backup).  no i didnt take any backup configuration. As I was ok in reconfiguring. after doing factory reset. I did try with fw upgrade in reverse order .28 .26 and .24 and nothing worked then i tried reupdating back to .36  What is weird configuration changes either GUI or pressing wifi disable/enable  too only locks up 60Ghz but doenst let 2.4/5 Ghz enabled back. I feel something fw code screwed up. locking up antenna or channels
