2.4GHz

I can see this has been discussed quite alot. And there are workarounds but that is to do with turning off BTWhole Home WiFi and turning on only your 2.4 on your reuter, naming it the same as your WiFi on whole home and turning off 5ghz. Once you have set up your WiFi enabled gadgets you can go back to what you had before. My problem is I can't take the wall mounted heaters in the shed into the house!

Therefore I actually need the whole home discs to have 2.4ghz. is this possible BT please? Is see from the app that it recognises both

Sorted - Thank you BT..... 🙂

This is what you do -

Make sure you are connected to the BT WHW Disc on wifi.

Open up tab in browser and go to - Whole Home Wi-Fi - Wi-Fi (mybtdevice.home)

Enter admin password

Go to Set Up, then WIFI and then scroll down to 2.4GHz Device Setup Mode

Enable and then it turns off all 5GHz for 30 mins. And then switches back!

Very easy when you know how!!
