How do you change your 5GHz to a 2GHz network?
I purchased SMART light bulbs that only work on a 2GHz network and mine is set at 5GHz. I need to change it and the option to change is no longer listed on my account's WiFi page.

Does this apply ?
The two WiFi bands have recently been combined into one with the Comcast gateway devices. Some devices get confused and don't know how to see / talk to combined bands.
If you are not using any Xfi Pods, you can try separating the 2.4 and the 5.0 bands and give them two different broadcast names / SSID's;

Associate the devices with the 2.4 band's SSID (broadcast name) and password.
