Re: Cannot connect to 5GHz since software update Roku Sticks

The update was with the Roku Sticks...not my router. Again, the Roku sticks lost 5ghz connection immediately upon a Roku Stick software update late October.

Re: Cannot connect to 5GHz since software update Roku Sticks

I have several 5ghz channels, 36, 140, 165, and 96 I believe. But the issue is nothing on my end.  Nothing changed for me.  What happened was on Oct26 software update for the roku sticks changed the functionality.  Period.  Oct25, all three of my roku sticks were on 5ghz...on Oct26 nome of the sticks would connect to 5ghz.  The roku software update caused this.
