Disable 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz band
You should definitely add this feature back because it does cause issues with specific devices. Specifically in my senerio i play a lot of vr games with full body tracking. The trackers themselves communicate with the dongles on the same frequency as 2.4ghz. The radio being on for this band specifically causes tracking issues for the full body tracking. Also seeing as I spent more than half a grand on this router I would expect to have all the features and not have to use a time scheduled workaround.

Every router I've ever had i have had to disable the 2.4ghz radio weather it be netgear or another competing company. It will never not cause issues in my scenario. I feel this is a completely necessary option to add on if possible.
I agree that it would be truly useful if Netgear could reintroduce this function in the next official firmware, since we are talking about a basic function that is present in every router on the market.
