You would be better separating the two bands by changing the name of one to allow you to explicitly connect to either band.

Ernie_C's solution is the correct one.
If you know how to turn the WiFi on/off then you can change the names. It's the same menu.

Hi
I’m afraid this method just doesn't work on my Hub 3.0
I attwmpt to apply changes to alter the 2.4G name, or name and password,
But the router won’t let me keep my same password for 5G.
I really do not want to change the password in every single internet device in the house...
Any idea how to split the signal without changing the password to 5G?
many thanks
