please change 2.4G 289 Mbps
for 5GHz, you can 600 Mbps or even lower.
AFAIK, that type of exclusion is not possible. Older routers used to have N-only modes, but I think router vendors have wisened up and withdrawn support for it. The Wi-Fi standards built in mandatory backwards compatibility into 802.11ac, so there is no concept of an AC-only mode.
