Signal strength signal not showing on 5GHz
Hi all,
I just purchased an EX6200 and everything works fine except for the signal indicator on the extender for 5GHz.
The thing is I have the 5GHz band working as I have several iPads finding it and using it as well as my smart TV.
When I go into the browser settings for the extender under Status it shows the following:
Connection Status to Existing Network (2.4GHz)
Name (SSID) NETGEAR
Link Rate 144 Mbps
Signal Strength -42 dBm (signal strenght image here)
Connection Status Connected
There is no connection status for 5GHz
Then below this it shows this:
Extender Wireless Setting (2.4GHz)
Name (SSID) NETGEAR_2GEXT
Region Australia
Channel Auto (1)
Wireless mode: Up to 145Mbps
Wireless AP On
Broadcast Name On
Wi-Fi Protected Setup Configured
Extender Wireless Setting (5GHz)
Name (SSID) NETGEAR_5GEXT
Region Australia
Channel 36 + 40 + 44(P) + 48
Wireless mode: Up to 867 Mbps
Wireless AP On
Broadcast Name On
Wi-Fi Protected Setup Configured
I know the 5GHz led indicator works because it flashes green during set up but just does not display any bars when running. The 2.4GHz led indicator works fine by the way.
Cheers.
