I concur with Jim.

My observation is that in our house, upstairs the 5Ghz AP has low signal strength
reported by the devices, and poor bandwidth.

Could it be that the radiation pattern of the antenna in WDR3800 laying horizontally
is different for each band. Maybe the 5Ghz band is more of a squashed donut?
