nighthawk router

I just purchased a robot vacuum and it comes ith an app.

The vacuum will only work with 2.4 and my router is set for 5.0

I don;t know how to configure the router-  WIFI on my phone only shows netgear 5.0

 

thanks

       There's a pretty effective remedy for that.  Visit
    http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look for
    Documentation.  Get the User Manual (at least).  Read.

      Thanks- apparently the ON/OFF button was not in the correct setting-

      amazing what a few words can do to clarify-

       

      No, I don't feel too stupid!!!

       

      thanks again

           Ignorance is often curable.  (Stupidity often goes unrecognized, and,

        even if recognized, can be refractory.)
