Yes. I see the name of my network.


You should be able to find it in the dropdown and see whether it offers you 2.4GHz and 5GHz as options, but since you say that you don't see a way to pick GHz's I guess your router is like mine and bounces back and forth on its own volition.

It doesn't show GHz's. Not sure if it's bouncing back and forth. I hope so, I guess.

There's just something wrong with having to disable one functionality to correct another. You don't need Bluetooth, but that's hardly a given.

Right.

(I don't remember if this ever came up before, but have you ever tried to connect to your router by entering http://192.168.1.1 in a browser address field?)


Yes, you must have missed that post. I just did that but it won't connect. It did when I had a Belkin router but not with TP-link. I am pretty sure I have to connect my Mac to the router via ethernet to do anything with it. Too lazy.
