“Can I create separate 2.4 and 5 GHz SSIDs with this? I have some old devices that will only work with 2.4 GHz and have had trouble getting them to connect to an SSID that combines both into a single network name.”

No you cannot. Worst yet you cannot disable remote management. Look for something from Asus.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, the only options are one SSID for main and guest. You do have the option to turn on/off 2.4 &5 Ghz for each.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yeah, I know what you mean. I’m a consultant and see that issue once in a while. The quick and easy fix is to TEMPORARILY disable the 5GHz, let your finicky devices find and join the network, and then enable the 5GHz again. Bingo - you’re good to go!! This is really easy to do in the app they provide.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can enable the guest network for 2.4 GHz only.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can just set it up in the app.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can but it may not be as cohesive a setup. If you enable guest mode. You are allowed to put the same encryption on the guest mode login and you can turn off the 5 GHz signal for the guest password. This should let you connect your older devices. It will mean that you can't get network sharing and connectivity to those older devices through the signal, but if they are older and you were looking for separate SSIDs anyway, then you probably don't care and it isn't an issue. The second option is if 2 decos are enough for your home's coverage you can set up a system with 2 for your general internet, then disconnect them and set up a second network with the 3rd unit and run two systems in the same house, then it should theoretically run two separate SSIDs as two networks. I haven't tried this myself to know for sure, so this idea may not work or you may need to trouble shoot some compatibility and interference issues if you go that route.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, this has 2.4 and 5 GHz capabilities. My security cameras are all 2.4. I connected them to the wifi it does not give an option for 2.4 or 5 GHz but they all joined without an issue. I now have better responsiveness to the cameras also.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.With the X60, you don’t need to. It will automatically connect to whichever frequency needed. I have bulbs and switches that are 2.4GHz and haven’t had any problems with connection.
