Cannot configure 6ghz band
I just purchased and installed the Axe5300. I'm having trouble configuring the 6ghz band. It has no SSID and is grayed out with a message that it is "temporarily unavailable when exiting ECO mode", but I didn't change ECO mode (and in fact can't even find ECO mode in the settings). Doing a search online, it appears that it's supposed to show up in the More module, but mine has Deco Lab, Reports, Block List and QoS instead of ECO Mode. I have tried to reboot the app, reboot the hardware and reboot both.

@EyeSpy03 - It's the WiFi 7 standard that allows for simulatneous connection to all the frequencies (2.4G Hz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz). For non-wifi 7 devices it just means you can use any of the 3 available frequencies.

@David-TP Version 3.7.11 released yesterday fixed the issue for me. I can now configure the 6 GHz network separately. Thanks!

Thank you for the update. I haven't noticed the 3.7.11 has been released already and the solution has been updated.
Best regards.

@David-TP hi there! The latest app update 3.7.70 seemed to have disabled the option to use the 6 GHz network as a dedicated backhaul. That wasn't the case prior to the update. Could this be a bug perhaps?

Hi, Thanks for the update. It is not a bug. This adjustment to the UI of the 6GHz configuration is made to maintain a consistent design with the 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi network in the Deco app.
Thank you very much and best regards.
