Nighthawk Mesh 6
I'm unable to access 2.4 G for my Blink system with this router. Any ideas how to split the 2G and 5G? thanks!
What mesh system do you have?
Most actual mesh systems like orbi or MK nighthawk, can't be split.
You can reduce the 5ghz's output and then disconnect/reconnect to see if you phone connects to the 2.4ghz.
Or some phones you can even set "prefer 2.4gh" in their wifi settings.
Once you get the smart device setup, you can undo the signal reduction or phone's preference.
Its just for setting up some smart devices that you have to do it. Its laziness on the app coders part to require you to be on the 2.4ghz for setup.
