Firmware problem with 5ghz
Great specs for travel router, but there's a problem / bug. If you configure the router's wan to connect to a 5ghz network, the 5ghz wireless network is disabled (even though configurations and menu status shows it as enabled) only the 2.4ghz wireless network works. If you configure the router's wan to connect to a 2.4ghz network, the router will function properly and broadcast both of its 2.4ghz and 5ghz networks. Appears to be a problem with firmware.
