R6220 router only has 5g

Rebooted router this morning due to another issue with wireless printer. Now my computer can't find our wireless network. Phone and tablet connected just fine on 5G network. HP support said computer can't handle 5G and needs 2.4 or 2.5 ghz . I don't completely understand, but I run my own business and need internet access for work. Please help!!
