Windows 10: How do i stop my laptop from connecting to the 2.4GHz channel(wifi)

Hi

My wifi has 2 different channels under the same SSID, and I really need to force my wifi to connect to the 5GHz and stop it from connecting back to the 2.4GHz. I have changed my wifi settings to prefer the 5GHz band, but it will always eventually connect back to the 2.4GHz

I have also tried using other software like wirelessmon(works extremely well, but my 30 days are over), NetSetMan(will still connect back to 2.4GHz), WirelessNetView(same thing happens), and i believe that changing my wifi settings to split the SSID would be the best solution.

However, my router settings does not seem to have any 'split SSID' option.
My router model number : HG8244H (Huawei)

Is there any other way to force my pc to connect to the 5GHz band of my wifi forever?

:)

 

My laptop does not detect my wifi after I change wifi channel from 11 to Auto? How to fix this?

Dear Experts,

I want to change my wifi channel to auto for better connection. but after i do this, my wifi disappears from the wifi list on my laptop. However my smartphone still can connect normally and the speed is fast. I interfere into the setting in my laptop but
nothing works. Finally I have to restore the channel to 11 as previous state and my laptops detects it. What is the problem and how I can have my laptop connect to auto channel?

 

Wifi channel

After finding what the channel is how do I get the computer to use that channel? I do not have an Auto on the Router.

I have a Netgear router, N750 WiFi Router, model WNDR4300

Some of my laptops connect at 5Ghz and others connect at 2.4Ghz. How can I get the ones that connect at 2,4Ghz to connect at 5Ghz.

Is there a way to put the channel in the computer?

 

Laptops cannot access desktops via WIFI


I have 3 desktops (all on Windows 10 1803) connected on my LAN. After following this forum for some times and did all the steps as suggested by forum member, access denied, all my desktops are able to view and access one another. I have a printer connected to PC1, and managed to connect all the other 2 PCs to have the shared printer.

I also have 2 more laptops (both Asus with the same Windows 10 1803) connected via WIFI. Performed all the same steps as per the desktops, but I was not able to access PC1. I was able to view all the 3 desktops from the file explorer, but I just can't access all the desktops. However, I was able to access the Asus laptops from desktop PC1.

Anyone able to assist on this matter? Any assistance is highly appreciated.
