Cannot find WIFI 6 network on my laptop
Hello everyone, as the Title says, I have tried things for hours to get my Wifi-6 to work
However, without success, I cannot find it on my Laptop and I have fully checked that my laptop supports it.
My network card clearly says: Killer Wi-Fi 6 Network adapter. And my laptop supports it.
But i cannot find the SSID. And i have last Windows 11 installed on my laptop.
And i have looked into TP-Link configuration and it is clearly "on" and the "SSID" it not hidden.
I do not understand what I am doing wrong.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Best Regards
Math

To verify your card supports Wi-Fi 6 802.11AX connect it to one of the visible SSIDs of your AXE5400 and then show the "Properties" of the connection. It should show Wi-Fi 6 for both, the 2.4 GHz SSID and the 5 GHz SSID, like in the screenshots below.
However, if you are talking about the 6 GHz band supported by the AXE5400, then you need a wireless adapter that supports "Wi-Fi 6E". (the E being all important here)
According to Intel's webpage the Killer AX1650i only supports the Bands 2.4 and 5 GHz.

Hi,
To be able to see the 6 GHz SSID of the Archer AXE5400 you would need to have a "Killer Wi-Fi 6E ... Wireless Network Adapter" installed in your laptop.
Can you please also tell us the exact model number of your Killer Wi-Fi adapter? (it should be shown where I put the three dots in the above sentence)
