Separate WiFi 2.4 and 5ghz bands
I am no longer able to separate my WiFi bands on the most recent Orbi firmware versions. It worked for over a year fine, but after updating firmware they are no longer separate. I have tried the Te...
Even if near a wifi singal, if the device is changing to 2.4Ghz, then this maybe a device issue rather then Orbi. Seems like the Roku is not handling the SSID frequencies well for some reason and just defaults to 2.4Ghz. This would be someting to approch Roku about and ask them if they have any information or experiences with there products running on Orib systems with single SSID names. Ask them why there product is changing to 2.4Ghz from 5Ghz while near a wifi single.
I would try some of the suggestions and see if it helps. If this only seems to be one of a few devcies that has issues, I would approach the Mfrs about this. They should be made aware of this. You maybe just hidding a problem that maybe a device issue rather then a Orbi one.
Thanks.
I will contact Roku although I still wish I could separate the ssid per band. :)
