No 5 Ghz band on BE19000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router
Hello,
7 days ago, I purchased/setup the TP-Link BE19000 using default/suggested settings. QoS and other "advanced" features settings are not in use. I wanted to see how this perfromned basic functrions. After 7 days of use, I observed the following issues:
- The router's 5 Ghz band is not visible or accessible on any device, e.g., iPhone 13 pro, PC Win 10, Macbook Pro, and several others. Confusingly, only the 2.4 Ghz and the 5Ghz IoT bands are visible and accessible.
- Passwords for each follow TP-Link Guidence guidence on "special characters"
- Mac connected to router via CAT 7 ethernet cable drops the connection repeatedly, with no interruption in the ISP's signal
I am concerned by these issues and am considering whether to return what may turn out to be a really expensive brick for a refund. But before I do, I was wondering if anyone else encountered similar issues with the TP-Link BE19000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Router.
If so, were the issues resolvedto your liking?
Or is it better/easier return it and buy an altogether different/better rotuter (considering the $$$).
Thank you in advance,
Umrk
