ORBI
Trying to figure out if my orbi is running a 2.4 or 5 ghz to install a la crosse weather station. It only uses the 2.4 ghz and won't install.
Thanks!

Correct, in normal cases you don’t need to disable 5GHz band to allow the device to select the 2.4GHz band.
This is an issue with this weather sensor that can’t select 2.4GHz if shared with 5GHz in same SSID, that’s why the proposed workaround.

I would suggest turning down the power on the 5Ghz radio first before disabling the 5Ghz radio.
