Why do certain devices only connect to the 2.4 GHz frequency?

That is... presuming it has a 5ghz radio in it.

Of course, would be for 5Ghz supporting devices.

Right, but just making sure he knows that some devices arent 5g capable under any condition.... You could spend all day dorking with it and it will always be 2.4g. LOL
Bottom line: You have to understand each device's communication capability.

Kind of like the guy who took his new chainsaw back to the store because it cut so slow.
The saleperson wanted to test it, so he grabbed to cord and pulled it hard... the chainsaw roared into life...
The customer said "What's that noise!???"
You gotta know what you are working with :) LOL
