Firmware 4.4.6
Location: US
Cannot get repeater mode to work with 5GHz at my house which has mixed-mode 5GHz/2.4GHz
Admin page just shows BSSID with the MAC address and nothing else.
It does work when I force 2.4GHz mode

How’s the Wi-Fi congestion in your vicinity?
Wouldn’t know how to objectively evaluate that. But I live in a somewhat dense area, in an apartment building with maybe 50 units.
When I was on firmware 4.2.2 previously - which worked for a few days on 5GHz before it crapped out and wouldn’t work again. Just updated to 4.4.6 because of that.
Sadly, the few times I’ve tried using this router as a repeater while I travel has always been a mixed bag, whereas my Slate has performed almost flawlessly.

I updated the firmware to the 4.5.0 beta
Initially, it didn’t work. Just kept switching back and forth between forced 2.4 and Auto, then it worked.
