As mentioned in the original post, my KLC can't see any 5GHz networks, neither mine nor any surrounding ones.

I have one AX and one AC router, they have completely different setups, one with mixed 2,4/5GHz ax network and one with separate 2,4GHz n/g/b and 5GHz n/ac networks. The KLC connects to the mixed network @ 2,4 GHz, doesn't see the separate 5GHz network, even if I place the KLC half a metre away from the router, in detect sight of it. Same with my phone (Samsung Galaxy S10+) hotspot, if I set it to 2,4GHz, it works just fine, the moment I set it to 5GHz, the KLC disconnects and can no longer see it.

So the problem is either with several different network devices or with the KLC.

I will try changing router settings and I'll report back.
