Region : UnitedKingdom

Model : TD-W9980

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : 0.6.0 1.10 v0021.0 Build 141215 Rel.41342n

ISP : talktalk


I have now lost the 5GHz wifi. :(

2.4GHz is okay.

The status page states that 5GHz is disabled yet the Dual Band selection mode is set to both 2.4 and 5GHz concurrently. I have changed to 5GHz only and the status for both is then changed to disabled. Reset back to "both concurrently" and only the 2.4GHz becomes active.

The system log is useless as it only lists DHCP entries. Does anyone have any idea of how to manually start the 5GHz?

Update. TP-Link have issued an RMS code. This will be my 4th W9980.

Restore the device to factory defaults. And in default setttings, both 2.4 and 5GHz concurrently option is selected, right?
How about 5GHz status on Status page?
