My quest 2 always connects to the 2.4 Ghz version of my wifi, rather than the 5 Ghz one, i have a BT Smart Hub 2 is there any way to force my headset to connect to the 5 Ghz version without disabling the 2.4 ghz on my hub as other people in my household have a couple of devices that use the 2.4ghz
Quest 2 always connects to 2.4 Ghz

Typical just had a google and found a thread with a bunch of people complaining about how my hub (Smart Hub 2) is unable to split out the 2.4 and 5GHz bands. The only work around i have found is to disable 2.4ghz while i use the quest then turn it back on after which is a pain in the ass. Looks like a dedicated hub might be on the cards.
Something not right with your Smarthub 2 I have it and my Quest 2 connects to it fine on 5ghz and it has a single SSID. I get a 866Mbps connection.
If you want to have a dedicated AP look at the last 4/5 pages of this thread.

I just changed the channel on mine to 11 to see if it made any difference and that seems to have done the trick! I always assumed my quest was connected to 5hz because its about 12ft from the router, i have no idea how long I've been using it at 2.4ghz, i only realised i was connecting at 2.4ghz after installing virtual desktop where i noticed it shows the connection freq, time to go and see if i get a higher bitrate with airlink/virtual desktop now!
