EX7500 Configuration when Router does not support 5GHz
Just purchased my EX7500 and updated to the latest Firmware Version V1.0.0.38_1.0.54 My Cable Modem is a Netgear CG3000v2 which only support only 2.4GHz Wifi Issues : The Status Page shows the 2.4GHz has "(No Connection)" The Status Page shows there is no 5GHz on the Router side, but it shows connection to the EX7500 over the 5GHz channel ( ? does it transfer the 5GHz traffic to 2.4GHz traffic on the Router-to-Extender connection ? ) The Start Page shows the 5GHz channel's Connection Status is Disconnected If I disable the 5GHz channel on the EX7500, leaving only the 2.4GHz channel enabled, then all traffic stops, the EX7500 is non-responsive, and I need to do a Factory Reset and start again The display lights alternate a red light for 5GHz then 2.4GHz, then sometimes no 2.4GHz, although it still seems to operate --- there does not seem to be a strong correlation between the indicator lights and its operation.
