Hi guys,
I am trying to get my iMac to work use the wireless A capabilities of my RT-AC68R. I created a separate channel SSID for the 5 GHz network and I hid the SSID to ensure no one else in the house is on the network but me. I set the network to wireless N + AC only (there is no wireless A only option) and set the channel to 80 MHz exclusively. Mousing over the network on my iMac confirms that it is a working 802.11ac network. However, when I connect to it, I hold down the option key and the PHY mode still reads 802.11n. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Router settings are set like this:
