Ability to force devices to 2.4Ghz or disable 5Ghz band temporarily
I purchased an Orbi router and I'm not able to use my phone to configure my devices that only support 2.4Ghz (alarm clock, security cameras). A lot of devices require your phone to be on the 2.4 ban...

I have some IoT devices running on 2GHz only, and was tipped to turn down the broadcast power for 5 Ghz. However it did not help for me, and I had to use another router with 5GHz disabled to set it up. Dissapointing that products with this price tag does not offer this simple ability, even for a short time of connectivity.
