Archer TX20U Plus | Unable to create 5GHz Hotspot due to the new driver release
I have Windows 10, and the hotspot's creation depends on the Internet connection. If I am connected via 2.4 GHz, the hotspot that will be created will also be 2.4 GHz, and similarly for 5 GHz (I can't choose a specific band for the hotspot).
Since the new driver release (Archer TX20U Plus(US)_V1_5001.19.113.2_win10_win11), I can't create a hotspot under a 5 GHz connection, (although in 2.4 GHz mode, everything works)
However, in the previous version (Archer TX20U Plus(US)_V1_5001.15.129.0_Win10_Win11) I do succeed to create 5 GHz hotspot
Update:
The problem was also reproduced in a previous version, but I noticed that if I define a specific channel (e.g. 36) in the router settings (under the 5Ghz settings) then the issue does not happen
On the other hand, if the channel is set to "Auto" (which is the default), then the issue occurs
Maybe it will help to analyze this issue
