EX7300V2 Cannot connect to 5G on the Wifi Router (Netgear R6900P - Dual Band)
Netgear Wifi Extender: EX7300v2
Firmware Version: V1.0.0.146
Netgear Wifi Router: R6900P
Firmware Version: V1.3.2.134_10.1.66
Using the WPS setup process per the user guide. It states to keep repeating the WPS process to connect to 5G, but I've had no luck. I missed the tech support end date by a few days, so out of luck there. I don't know if it matters, but I'm using the Smart Connect feature on the router (router intelligently selects the best WiFi band 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz for your WiFi connections. Smart Connect requires the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks to use the same WiFi network name (SSID), security options and password). Appreciate any advice or suggestions.

Hi DeathValley,
Good day!
Thank you for reaching out. We are sorry for not being able to get back to you immediately. Did you by any chance try disabling the Smart Connect feature of the router and try setting up the extender first then enabling again the Smart Connect feature of the router?
