Splitting xfinity router

I need to connect a device to my router but only 2.5 GHz. When I try connecting it , the message indicates it must be 2.5 GHz. Any ideas on how to split it without loosing signal strength.?

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.
