    Where are you looking for this wifi?

     

    What devices?

  • By default, and unless you have changed the default config, the SSID (and PSK, the wireless password) is the very same for both bands. Said this - unless you had enabled the guest SSID for either the 2.4 GHz or the 5 GHz band .You won't see an wireless network SSID with the ubiquitous 24G or 5G suffix on the name in the air you might have seen on other, older routers or probably extenders.
