RT-N66U issues with 5ghz, losing internet but not LAN access

Soylent

Occasional Visitor
While connected to my 5ghz SSID, sometimes I get the message on my laptop like "limited access", and I can't connect to anything on the internet (WAN). It also happens on my phone and Xbox at the same time. Usually it clears up after about 10 seconds, or switching to the 2.4ghz ssid resolves it immediately.

The weird thing is that the wireless connection doesn't drop, because I can still access my local LAN. And clients on 2.4 don't lose connection. It just seems to affect internet access.

I'm running the latest Merlin build.

Edit: Also, I checked and my laptop is connecting as 802.11a
