How to Set Your Router to the 2.4GHz Band: A Simple Guide

1. Open a Browser: On your computer or smart device, open a web browser.

2. Access the Router Management Interface:

   • Enter the router's IP address in the address bar, usually 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 (specific address may vary based on your router model).
   • Enter the login credentials, typically a username and password (default might be “admin” if not previously changed).

3. Navigate to Wireless Settings:

   • Find and click on the “Wireless Settings,” “Wireless Network,” or “WLAN” link or option.

4. Select the 2.4GHz Band:

   • Look for the frequency band option and select 2.4GHz. If your router supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz, ensure that 2.4GHz is activated.
   • If you had previously selected “Dual Band Combined” or a similar setting, you might need to adjust this to separate the bands, allowing you to individually select and configure each band.

5. Save Settings:

   • Click the “Save,” “Apply,” or “OK” button to save your settings.
   • The router may need to restart to apply the new settings.

6. Test the Wireless Connection:

   • Once the settings are saved and the router has restarted, try connecting to the 2.4GHz network with your device to ensure a stable connection.

This setup ensures you can flexibly configure and optimize your wireless network for different devices and needs. If you encounter any issues or need specific assistance, please refer to the router's user manual or contact technical support.
