WiFi 6 and iPhone Functionality? XB8 with Gen2 Pods and Wifi 6 with iPhone 13 Pro Max?

I have a new XB8 along with two installed new Gen2 Pods up and running and the 1200Mbps tier. The Xfinity app shows my "Connection Type" to my iPhone 13 Pro Max as "5 GHz WiFi" band. However, my phone will also work, to my understanding, on the 6GHz band (which I would like to use for a variety of reasons).

When I searched the forum on the question of getting a capable iPhone to work with the XB8 + Gen2 Pods, many of the posts had to do with confirming that the iPhone (or whatever device) was running on the 6GHz band.

My question, though, is can my configuration function so that the XB8 and Gen2 Pods is configured to connect to the iPhone on 6GHz instead of the 5GHz band?  If so, how would that be accomplished, exactly? Is there some XB8 setting needing attention to make this happen as a user preference?  PS - I'm talking about WiFi 6 not WiFi 6E.  Thanks!!
