Hey everyone,

I can't find the 802.11ac only setting in my 5ghz wireless settings, why would that be? I've been following tutorials both from TP and on third party websites, and all indicate that this setting should be here.

This happens both when I'm using the device in the router and in access point modes.

@RyanThere Update the router to the latest FW version. If that doesn't help, you can try to factory reset it. That will reset all settings to default, and you'll have to adjust them again.

@user30 This is the latest FW version, at least according to the admin panel. I've already done a factory reset once, the issue persists.

I am not sure that there's a setting '802.11ac only' implemented in the Archer C6 v3.20 at all.

Refer this thread which raises the same question.

Archer C6 and Archer A6 have similar web management interface and functionality.
