Google, if you're listening - please for the love of dog update the software and firmware so people can disable the 5ghz band for a while.  WE NEED THIS to setup IoT devices.  There are clunky work arounds, most that involve buying a different router just to do this simple thing, but why?  Why is this hard for you?  If you think it will cause more issues if people forget to reenable 5ghz then just put it on a timer - give us the option to disable 5ghz for 15 minutes or an hour.  So many issues solved if you do this.  End rant.

Hi Grrrr1,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the community. I understand that you want to disable 5Ghz and we apologize for the inconvenience caused. I'm glad to help you! 

For now, there isn't an option to disable the 5Ghz therefore we recommend that you take a look at this post Disable 5Ghz band on Google - Google Nest Community

 If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reply to this post. I'll be happy to assist you further!

 

Best regards,

Rusell.
