WRT610N

I have a WRT610N running 1.00.02 B10. My Dell Studio XPS has a built in Intel 5300 which used to "see" the router's 5GHz SSID but no longer does. I tried upgrading the 5300 driver to 13.2.1.5 (from the Intel site), which did no good so I downgraded to the Dell driver:

12.0.0.82. The 5GHz SSID still does not show up.

Some of the relevant 5 GHz settings on the router are: Network Mode Wireless-N only Channel Width 40 MHz only (also tried auto) Wide Channel 159 (ch 38 is no better)

The wireless settings of the laptop driver include:

802.11n Channel Width for band 5.2 Auto 802.11n Mode Enabled

I wonder if the router has a problem. I need to borrow a suitable laptop to see if it can see the 5GHz channel. In the mean time, can anyone suggest anything else for me to try?
