So, about a week ago, our 5g-connected wireless devices began losing their wireless connections intermittently, usually momentarily but a few times it was for more than a couple of minutes. This means no streaming and an unhappy husband. Today I spent some time trying to troubleshoot and began seeing a network named "BROADCOM" on the same MAC address as the 5G radio on my RAX28 router.
Can anyone tell me what's going on? How do I disable the 5G radio until I can sort things out?
Thanks for any help.
[EDIT]: The default SSID was NETGEAR47-5G. I never changed it from that default name.
Re: 5G radio SSID name changed.....I didn't change it
[EDIT_2]: I've since discovered that 5G radio's password has not changed. Only the SSID name has changed...from the default to "BROADCOM." I was able to log into it using the new name and the old password. Go figure.
Re: 5G radio SSID name changed.....I didn't change it
That's what I'm leaning towards, but....the original SSID name is still present in the router admin area. How would I change it back? Yet, it's broadcasting the changed name.

Okay. I didn't make myself clear. It's broadcasting "Broadcom" as the SSID, but when I log into the router admin page, the SSID shows up as "NETGEAR47-5G." How could I change it back to the default name when it's still showing up as the default name?
