Ability to Use on 2.4 and not 5Gz Frequency

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.2.5 Build 20231225 Rel. 58766

I live in a rural area and get my internet over an antenna. The 5GHz signal interferes with the antenna, so I must disable it. I don't need a separate SSID for 2.4 and 5. Maybe a switch with 2.4 only, 5 only, or both as the default. I don't see a way to do this with the current setup. My WAN is 16Mbps, so my home network internet speeds are not an issue. My laptop and iPhone do not have the 6GHz capability.

Welcome to the country.

@MCOtto

Do you not have that option in the wi-fi settings of the Deco?

Thank you, @yves_b. The solution is https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1591/. From the Wi-Fi, click advanced, then band, and you have the options for both, 2.4, and 5.
