Splitting of the 2.4 & 5 Ghz bandwidths

[Steve+C]

Hello, 

Yesterday I split the bandwidth on my Sky router to accommodate some Tapo smart security devices (which of course will only operate on the 2.4Ghz bandwidth).

Upkn completion of the splitting. I It would appear that all of the devices that work (as they should on the 5Ghz bandwidth)  have now automatically connected to the 2.4Ghz bandwidth.

How can this be corrected?

@Steve+C  Did you change the name of the 2.4 GHz to something different to the 5GHz and make those devices connect to that rather than the 2.4 GHz frequency.

Hello 

Yes!  I renamed them as separate frequencies.

My pc, I tablet and laptop have connected to the 5Ghz frequency. 

But not my Smart TV or inkjet printer.iWll I have to manually amend the IP addresses on these devices?

Those may only have 2.4Ghz chipsets: they don't require 5Ghz speed.
