My WiFi router is 5g. Will the extender give the option of connecting to 5g or 2g? Some of my older equipment only works on a 2.4g connection. null

Yes it will, following the instructions, you first set it up for 2.4 then 5g. I'm assuming your router has both. Works great, My xfinity had a weak signal in garage, once I connected the range extender, I had max bars on the extender and was able to connect my Smart bulbs and Smart switches Hope this helps

Per instructions you set the unit up for 2.4 gig then it gives you the option to also set it up for 5 gig. You might even be able to bypass the 2.4 gig setup and go straight to the 5 gig setup. I set my unit to 2.4 gig because the router is 2.4 gig and bypassed the 5 gig setting.
