Have you checked that your computer can support 5GHz wifi? Not all of them can. It will depend on the capabilities of the wireless adapter..... Keep in mind, both "ends" of the connection need to support 5GHz, in this case the Comcast gateway and your computer.

TRy changing the security mode to "WPA/WPA2 PSK (AES)". I'm seeing underneath that box that 802.11n/ac are only compatible with that...

Possbly consider posting a screen shot of the WiFi configuration on your gateway? I have posted the 2 following from mine below:
