Are you talking about 5Ghz Wifi network?

#

it could be bc it's using a channel that the switch doesn't use

#

i had to move mine down to below 56 for the switch to detect it

This issue is quite complicated and sometime it's nearly impossible to remedied.

#

The Switch's Wifi is pretty wacky. And I meant that literally.

#

At times, it can refuse to recognize certain Wifi network at certain wavelength or even band.

#

There isn't a concrete way to solve it. Although I have reports from various fixes that I can't explain why did they work.

#

Such as go to another location and connect to their similar Wifi network (5Ghz in this case) and go back to your home, your home's 5Ghz wifi will then appear 0_o??

#

A more logical way to solve this is to analyze the status of your current household's Wifi network, and change the 5Ghz band a few times to see which would click.

#

If you don't want to go that far, then it's OK just to use 2.4Ghz.
