LG Washer with WiFi

My LG washer will only connect with 2.4 and I only have one wireless network available, that is 5.0. How do I get a 2.4 network?

If you are using a Comcast supplied gateway device,  the two WiFi bands have recently been combined into one. 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 device with the 2.4 band's SSID (broadcast name) and password.

What make/model device do you have providing your WiFi signal?  Perhaps it can be configured to provide both 2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz signals.
