P8Z77-V DELUXE Wifi - Cannot connect to 5GHz network

[gforgary]

Hello - I purchased the ASUS P8Z77-V DELUXE a few days ago - overall I'm very happy with the board - however for some reason I cannot connect to the 5GHz n-network at home (Linksys E4200). I've tried using another dongle and it didn't have a problem, but the onboard WiFi will only connect to the 2.4GHz side.

I can see the 5GHz channel, but when I try to connect it gives me a generic cannot connect to network message.

Does anyone else have this problem or knows of a fix? I'm already using the latest drivers, updated the bios, etc.

Anyone? I contacted ASUS but all the guy said was update drivers... We'll I updated everything included the newest bios. Tried taking off password for the 5Ghz, rebooted router, nothing changed. I can see it broadcasting, just can't connect.

Is anyone able to connect to ANY 5Ghz network?

I use it for gaming now - I haven't had any issues except for the 5ghz band. I'm going to try to send it in and get a new wifi dongle. Very happy with the rest of the board though.
