Hello!
I just have bought a TL-WA850RE range extender. It works fine with 2.4GHz wifi but cannot detect my 5GHz wifi. I tried to set my Speedport W724V router to wifi cahnnel 36+40 and 44+48 but it did not show any change.
It is weird that TL-WA850RE configuration screen shows only 2.4GHz Network title everywhere.

It is normal. The TL-WA850RE supports 2.4GHz only, that is why you cannot see 5GHz.
There are some range extender supports 2.4GHz and 5GHz both. Like RE200, RE450, RE650.
May it help.

@Kevin_Z Ohh, I thought so...in this case, we stay on 2.4GHz. Thanks for reply!
