Hello, I recently just got internet installed and my roommates and I want to split the network signal to two different networks (SSIDs). We have a netgear modem and a netgear router, the N750. Netgear has something called the "Genie" which allows you to set up the networks any way you'd like, even adding guest networks. However none of our roommates are able to detect the 5ghz range network, only the 2.4ghz.

Any helpful tips would be great, or even just a link to an article would help as well. Thanks!
