Requesting 5Ghz & 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi SSID splitting feature
2019-09-07 11:09:52
Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.0

As per title, could you please add SSID splitting feature. Sometimes the 5ghz signal dropped to 2.4 GHz when the signal is a slightly weaker, but the overall bandwidth throughput is still higher than 2.4ghz wifi. My area is congested with 2.4ghz interference. Keeping switching on and off wifi on devices is troublesome.

Hello, the latest firmware has added individual switches on both 2.4G and 5G networks.

 

If you want to keep devices connecting to the 5GHz to get better performance, you can go to more-wifi page to turn off the 2.4GHz. 

 

Good day.

This isnt a option as some devices require 2.4ghz due to they are not dual band.
