On the Laptop I can only see the N band in the 2.4 GHz frequency and the A band in the 5 GHZ frequency.
Why can’t I see all the bands? The router is set to auto in both radio bands. I know that the 2.4 GHz “G” band is working because I get it on my Ipod Touch. I would like to be able to select any of the bands/frequencies I want.
Other than not being able to see all the bands (or not understanding why) I am very happy with my WRT610N. It was very easy to setup, was easy to update the firmware and it has a much stronger signal that my previous WRT
