Have used Netgear for years and have never had any issues with Wi-Fi functionality, but have never had a security system with Wi-Fi. New lessons for me. Apparently 5G didn't recognize 2.5G or was hiding from 2.5G. Anyway, he has another (and it's a cheaper Netgear model) and it welcomed the 2.5G to come and feel at home.
