Cr1000a wifi6e fold 5

[Metasharma]

Just got new FiOS 1gig service. Cr1000a router with e3200 extender.  I named 2.4, 5 and 6 as separately, turned SON off. 

1. Galaxy fold 5 doesn't  recognize WiFi 6e network name. Wap3 is enabled. Restarting everything didn't help. Can someone please confirm if Fold 5 (unlocked active on Verizon) supports wifi6E? Tx. 

2. Laptop has wifi6e network adapter,,  same situation as Fold 5.

3.  I read somewhere I shouldn't name 2.4, 5 and wifi6e with different names? 

4. Also on 5 speed test never goes above 200 down and 150 upload

Not happy with CR1000A. I was told you have to connect it via Coaxial or Ethernet cable to extender. Can't pair E3200 with cr1000a wirelessly.

E3200 is the previous generation extender, made for G3100.

CR1000A/B's preferred extender is CE1000A. Otherwise, wireless backhaul cannot be achieved. Notwithstanding, wireless backhaul is considered as a last resort.

Turning SON off is not recommended after an IoT soft AP was added to the firmware.

6 GHz radio requires you to explicitly enable that in the GUI. It is by default turned off. If you were to get a CE1000A in the future and attempt to wirelessly backhaul to CR1000A, the 6GHz will be used solely for the backhaul and all other devices cannot be connected to that.

For mobile specs, let me summon someone from the wireless side to help you. @tikibar1 , hello could you take a look? Thanks.

Looks like the user has already reached out to Samsung:

Fold 5 compatibility 

Also -- "Samsung's latest foldable flip phone is the first in the lineup that can connect to Wi-Fi 6E networks. Wi-Fi 6E debuted on Samsung's smartphones with the Galaxy S21 Ultra and has made its way into other flagship Galaxy phones and tablets since then, including recent Z Fold models."
