Hi!
I have an Airport Extreme A1521 that I bought specifically to be able to control turning 5ghz on/off (as it is one of the few Airport devices that offers this functionality)
This Extreme has updates available but I'd like to confirm that the 5ghz on/off control is not removed with any of the latest updates.
Can anyone confirm that the ability to continue controlling 5ghz on/off remains even after updating to the latest version?
Thank you!
The ability to turn 5 GHz (and 2.4 GHz) on/off will not be affected by any update for the AirPort Extreme.
The "latest" update on the AirPort Extreme will install version 7.9.1 firmware on the device, which is primarily a security update for Wi-Fi.
The word "update" is a bit misleading though, since firmware 7.9.1 was released about 5 years ago.
Hi Bob -
Your reply is pure gold and exactly what I was hoping to hear - thank you.
Your kind guidance on this forum is very much appreciated by me (and no doubt countless others!). It was your replies on other threads which lead me to the A1521 in the first place. Thanks again for your phenomenal contributions here.
Thanks for the nice words!
