Hi, I have EE broadband on dual 2.4ghz and 5ghz. My WiFi cameras only work with 2.4ghz and won't connect. Firstly can I disable 5ghz while I connect them all?  and if then I restore the 5ghz will they stop working or can't connect again. If it's possible could someone explain how to disable the 5ghz please. Thank you.

Which router do you have?

 

For the black EE Smart Hub, but not the white EE Smart Router, try separating the wireless bands/SSIDs. On the Advanced > Wireless Settings page of the SH there is a button near the top to Separate the Bands. Turn it ON. Then the 5GHz SSID will appear starting with "5GHz-" & the 2.4 GHz SSID not starting with "5GHz-". Then connect your devices to the 2.4 GHz SSID if they can't do 5GHz. The Smart Router doesn't allow this.

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.
