Can't send pictures to a digital frame with the RBR850 and 2 satellites
I purchased 2 identical digital frames which only work at 2.4 Ghz. I'm using the RBR850 router with 2 satelites. I couldn't send any pictures to the frames no matter what I tried. My brother took one...

How do I separate 2.4 and 5 Ghz on the RBR850 so that I can choose 2.4 Ghz on the digital frame?
You can't separate the 2.4 and 5 GHz. And there is nothing to choose on the digital frame. If it can't connect to 5GHz, it will connect to 2.4 GHz.
How do you set up these unnamed digital frames? (I assume that you have contacted the people who made these devices.)
If you have to use a mobile phone, one way to set up an IoT device is to disable the 5 GHz connection on the phone. That will force it to connect to 2.4 GHz. When the frame is up and running you can restore the phone's 5GHz connectivity.
Hi Michael,
I noticed that you can't separate the 2.4 and 5 GHz. The frame see's ORBI as my connection.
The set up was pretty easy and I did contact the seller. They are looking into this as well.
How would I disable 5G on the iPhone Pro 13 for instance?
Thanks!

You would be surprised how many useless IoT installation programs there are out there. Too many have yet to discover Mesh wifi networks and their single SSID.

No idea. I am too cheap to buy iThings. I would have thought that Apple would be a better place to ask about that. Or set the things up with a mobile device that is easier to use.
