Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@Davidnx all was sensible advice but is a little out of date now..
if you have devices that wont connect to the default settings splitting bands can help if the router allows it. However on the newer white Sky Max hubs you cannot split wifi bands the recommendation is to temporarily disable the 5GHz band connect the device and then turn the 5GHz back on.WiFi6 requires both bands to be on a single SSID.
Again only the okder black hubs allow manual channel selection most newer routers including Sky's WiFi Max hubs dont allow manual channel selection as the hub does this automatically.
Agree WPA2-PSK is the lowest wifi security standard you should use (all Black Sky hubs default to that) however where a router offers the higher security level of WPA3 or WPA3-T use those unless you again have older devices that wont connect. Most but not all WPA2 compliant devices will connect to the WPA3-T setting (T is for transitional) which is the default on the white Sky Max hubs.
