to the original poster i was having this same issue. it didnt start until i installed dd-wrt onto the linksys router wrt610n v1. before dd-wrt i was connected to 5ghz. when i upgraded to dd-wrt it would not connect nor would the 5ghz show up in the site survery. been searching for answers for the past month as i just ended up connecting to the 2.4 ghz network instead......

anyway what i did to fix this today was i noticed the dap-1522 was trying to use channel 36 but in the dd-wrt the channel was set to auto. so i changed dd-wrt to match the dap-1522 channel 36..as soon as i did that it shows up in the site survey and i am now able to connect to the 5ghz network.

hope this helps

Same problem here...2.4 band works fine, but the 5hz band I cannot get to work at all.  But I did notice that the forum name says it only supports one or the other band concurrently.  I guess I did not see this when I purchsed the product.  Reguardless I have current firmware and I cannot get it to work with 5hz band.  I also have a DIR-825 which has the current firmware.  I am a network engineer and boy these home products leave alot to be deisred.  I noticed that many other peeps are also haveing the same issue.  Is there a workarround or do we just have to return the product and find something else that works?

Actually the 5Hz channel works just fine.  It is the signal that is prety week on the 1522 as the antenas are week.  Look at the signal extenders to get a decent signal in your network.

Signal is not that bad , I have mine set to 75% and connect fine on 5ghz , 30ft through 2 walls , and 1 double pane window . I find running all my wireless under 100% signal improves things , don't know why .

Kicking the tires on DD-WRT. Changed the 5Ghz to be only AES [Not TKIP+AES]. But I don't have a channel 36 on the 5Ghz side. I have  channel 136.

Will see if this works later tonight. . . .

I have a Linksys E3000 that I'm trying to get to work with the 1522 on 5ghz. I can sometimes get it to connect but it is so slow that it takes forever to sign on to Playstation network. How should I go about troubleshooting this?

Just thought I'd contribute that I've got a DIR-855 (running 5GHz only), firmware version 1.23WW, connected to a DAP-1522, firmware version 1.21 in Bridge mode.

Connecting the two was a frustrating time hole, but I got there in the end by setting a static IP on the DAP-1522 to match my DIR-855 network range and then using WPS. (The SSID has to be visible on the DIR-855.)

So far I'm getting a good connection, between 216 Mbps and 270 Mbps, but the units are only about 10 feet apart over two floors.

As others have reported, I cannot access all of the web features of the DAP-1522 with anything other than Internet Explorer. Irritating since I use Mac OSX.

I'm using firmware 1.31 and had the same problem and changing it to channel 36 worked perfect! Thank you so much for the help.
