5G Network Under Maintenance; Switching to 2G Network

Usually when clicking the Wireless icon in the Notification Area one will get a list of Wireless access, hopefully most if not all will show as Secured. If yours is like mine you should get both 2 and 5 listed, click on the 2 to connect. I have about a dozen show but they are neighbors all in a 1/2 mile radius, even include some Wireless printers. The last one I used has always shown as first in the list, didn't make any change each time in the Properties unless it is intended to be permanent.

What does netsh wlan show networks show? For me it shows this:

Code:

C:\Users\ztruk>netsh wlan show networks

Interface name : Wi-Fi 2
There are 3 networks currently visible.

SSID 1 : MySpectrumWiFie8-5G
    Network type            : Infrastructure
    Authentication          : WPA2-Personal
    Encryption              : CCMP

SSID 2 : Ztruk_5G
    Network type            : Infrastructure
    Authentication          : WPA2-Personal
    Encryption              : CCMP

SSID 3 : Ztruk_2.4G
    Network type            : Infrastructure
    Authentication          : WPA2-Personal
    Encryption              : CCMP

As shown here my adapter can use either 2G or 5G by simply choosing one then Connect, both are automatically available.

Have you on the router give 2g and 5g seperate names or you wont know what you connecting to
