Hi,

I have a WZR-1750DHP which I use as a wireless bridge in my loft to extend the WiFi signal. I recently updated the firmware from v2.00 to 2.29 - the latest version available. Since this update I noticed that while the 2.4G signal is OK (showing my Sky DSL connection as previously), but the router isn't broadcasting the right network in the 5G range. Instead of showing the bridged connection it's showing it's own Buffalo-A-XXXX network instead. Using a WiFi analyser I've confirmed that my Sky connection no longer shows in the 5G range, which it did before the firmware update.

Does anyone know if something needs amending in the router CP to resolve this? Appreciate any thoughts.
