Then I guess you need to better describe what you're trying to do so I understand it.

Hi,
When I originally set up my home network with the RAX80 wireless router I set up both a 2.4 GHz and a 5 GHz connection option for my network and I originally manually assigned my devices to the appropriate speed network connection types. It was easy to do but now I want to change a couple connections and I cannot figure out how to change the connection type. Thanks for your patience and help.

By connection type do you mean for 2.4ghz to 5ghz?
if so, they need to have seperate ssids (names) to individualize.
That's the article I linked to.
If not, what do you mean by connection types
