Hello @user_35qt9z, thanks for taking the time to reach out on our Forums. We appreciate you being a customer with us and my team is always here to help!
This is a great question! The answer is no. The only difference between the 2 bands is that 2.4 GHz is slower but has a longer range, and 5 GHz has less range but is faster. We usually have our devices set up to do both depending on the need for the device connected, which offers a wider range when needed.
I hope this answers your question. Please let us know what other questions we can answer, we're here to help.
