Q: cannot join 2ghz airport extreme
Hi,
I recently changed some settings on my network. I have 2 airport extremes and 2 airport expresses. They were all setup to extend the network. I changed them so that they each broadcast a unique Wifi name so I could tell which one I was connecting to. They are all wired so this was not an issue. Everything was working fine. I could join all of them again.
Today I could not join any of them, unless I blanked out the password on the airport, but I like a secure network. I reset to factory and redid the devices with slightly different network names so that my laptop would not get confused. I also deleted the previous networks from my wifi advanced settings on my laptop. Now I can join a 5 ghz network but I cannot join a 2ghz network even though they use the same password.
I have tried reboots, resetting to factory, turning laptops and airports off for 5 min. Checked the firmware and it was up to date.
Not sure what to try next.
Thanks,
Will
