what router are you using? 

what "streaming" isn't showing the 5ghz? Not all devices are dual band.

Sorry.. I wasn't specific.  It's a R6120  AC1200 2.4 and 5.0 GHz. 

The 5GHz doesn't come up as an option of networks on Roku but does on laptop and tablet.

Now our Roku is running like crap and has to keep being restarted. Says signal is weak.

Had no problems for years with 10+ year old netgear router 2.4
