Multiple 5GHz networks?
I want to have two different 5GHz networks. One set to HT80 where my iPhone 11 Pro Max performs best and one and one on HT160 where my wireless desktop performs best. I don't see anywhere to do that? I was able to do something similar on my Asus RT-AC5300 no problem. Thanks for any input!

Re: Multiple 5GHz networks?
I'm running in AP mode if that makes a difference? I found this site (https://kb.netgear.com/000061423/Does-the-5G-2-WiFi-band-of-my-RAX200-have-160MHz-channel-bandwidth-...) but I don't see the 5G-2 option?? I'm also on the latest firmware.

Well looks like I have to have the RAX200 for Tri-band.

Re: Multiple 5GHz networks?
If you look at the label you have the RAX200 for sure?
Are you using smart connect?
Smart connect combines the ssid's into 1 ssid.
Also, if you're "up to" speed for wireless is set to 4800mbps, its running 160hz.
At the 2400mbps, its running 80hz.

Re: Multiple 5GHz networks?
No, I have the RAX120. I got it mixed up with the RAX200 since they are both 12-Stream. I should have looked to see if the RAX120 was Tri-Band before I bought it. I just assumed it was considring how much it costs. It's kinda crazy that the ASUS GT-AX11000 costs less and has Tri-Band. From the reviews I've seen the Netgear RAX120 and the ASUS are similar.
