There’s typically nothing that needs to be configured on the 6GHz band—mine is the same way. By design, 6GHz offers a much wider range of channels and experiences far less interference compared to 2.4GHz or 5GHz. Because of this, there’s rarely a need to manually adjust channels or tweak settings. The trade-off is that 6GHz doesn’t broadcast as far, which is why it’s best suited for short-range, high-speed connections in low-interference environments. If everything’s working smoothly, it’s usually best to let your router or access point manage the band automatically.
