How to connect 2.4GHZ Devices

I have the 750 and I’m having this same problem. I was able to get to the Wireless Settings, but there is no “Broadcast SSID on 5G Channel” button. Has this process changed since the original post?

    So you'll need to change the power output of the 5Ghz radio to 25%. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings Then connect your mobile device at a distance from the RBR to ensure the mobile phone keeps connected to the 2.4Ghz radio. After you get the IoT device connected, re-configure the system back to where it was. Turn off ALL RBS as well during this process.
