Dual band blindness?
Hello All. In the past week I have notice that I no longer have access across the 2.4g and 5g bands. It used to me that regardless of which band a device was connected to, it could see the devices on the other band. For example, I have some older airport expresses that only are 2.4g compatible, but if I was connected to 5g on my iPhone, iPad, Macbook or Mac Mini, I could still see them and stream music to them. Now, if I am connected to 5g on the Macbook or Mac Mini, I can only see the Apple TV I have on the 5g band. In fact, last night I tried to stream a movie from my Mac Mini (connected to 5g) and the ATV (connect to 5g) using home sharing and it kept dropping. I finally switched both the Mac and the ATV to the 2.4g band and it worked. I can certainly try resetting my router or Airport Extreme, but thought I would check out here first as to better be able to trouble-shoot this if it happens again the future. Thanks!
