Splitting WiFi bands on Sky Max Hub

PaulBR5 — Tue, 23 Jan 2024 17:00:08 GMT

I need to split the WiFi bands so that some devices connect to the 2.4GHz band rather than the 5GHz band. The device becomes unstable when connected to 5GHz. I can see there's advice for other Sky router but not the Max Hub. Grateful for any help.

@PaulBR5

There is an option via your my sky app to disable 5ghz temporarily before re enabling it

@cookiemonsteruk thanks for the reply and forgive my ignorance but if I disable the 5GHz and then enable it won't the problem device try to connect back up to this at at some point? If I could rename the 2.4GHz band I can make sure it stays on that.
