I help that can help you. My router uses both 2.4 and 5G. However my extender proposed me only for the 2.4g. I was able only to extend my connection using the 2.4, not the 5G. Good luck. So when I have my extender plug in, I saw net gear #, netgear#ext, netgear#5g - there is no netgear#ext5g
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi! If the devices that only use 2.4GHz are not dual-band devices (2.4GHz + 5GHz), they should only detect and connect to 2.4GHz signals, despite whether or not there are 5GHz signals nearby, regardless of their names. However, if the devices in question are dual-band, and you would prefer them to use 2.4GHz only, this would need to be configured on each device, as the device itself chooses which band to connect to in such scenarios.
