Won't allow my 2.4ghz gadgets to connect
Following the steps to turn off the 5gHz network still doesn't allow me to connect a LaCrosse Weather station that requires a 2.4 gHz network during initial set up. Any suggestions?
iphones are a little harder to change the ssid (wireless name).
What I meant by it is that if you set your iphone's hotspot with the exact same ssid/password as the router, it should auto connect back to the router when you disable the hotspot. (you need to have the router shut off while doing this)
If you didn't change your phone's hotspot ssid (name) and password to the exact same as the router, it won't auto-connect.

By the way, mine is an Orbi RBR750.
