I have netgear ac750 wifi range extender ex6100 i already set it up with my router but 2.4 ghz network shows in my phone and my ipad but 5ghz simple not showing on my any device for i don't know why...Also 2.4 ghz and 5ghz wifi ssid broadcast is enabled from extender setting page but still not showing in my phone why please any one tell me the solution....I already reset extender also updated to letest firmware but not workedI have router which broadcast 2.4ghz signal and i my Netgear. Extender i have enabled both 2.4 ghz and 5ghz broadcast so that i can use both signal but 5ghz simple not showing in any device not on android not on ios what should i do???

What firmware is on the extender? What version do you have? Version 1 was a non-mesh extender while version 2 was a mesh extender. A mesh extender combines the 2.4ghz and 5ghz ssid all into 1 ssid. so a standard scan only shows 1 ssid but the extender moves devices between the 2 bands as needed.

Letest firmware and Version 2 of mesh extenderNow tell me how can i separate it manually because some of my device need to use 5ghz and there is no option for that so what should i do??? Please help

You can disable the "onewifi" feature. That'd allow you to name the wireless bands whatever you'd prefer. https://kb.netgear.com/000044732/How-do-I-enable-or-disable-One-WiFi-Name-on-my-Nighthawk-Mesh-WiFi-Range-Extender

I had check every setting in my router but got nothing like onewifi features please help...How can i enable 5ghz option and also there is an option called fastline technology would this feature can help me to fix this???? I also attached screenshot so you can get hardware information and all that things...

In your screen shot, you're not on the wireless settings page. Did you follow the instructions I linked to? or tried it with your pc?
