Interference with Home Theater

I have a 2-point Nest Wifi mesh in my apartment that had been working fine until I set-up a new 5.1 home theather system with wireless rear speakers.  The speakers connect to the soundbar via 2.4GHZ and it is causing wifi to be extremely slow in the living room when the soundbar is on.  On a traditional wireless router, I could just connect my TV and other devices to the 5GHZ band to avoid interference but I can't find that option via Google Nest Wifi.  Is there a workaround here?

Thats entirely up to the client with Nest Wifi, as there is no way to separate 2.4GHz from 5GHz, or enable/ disable any on them separatly.

Relevant doc/ guide:

Relevant threads:

Adding to that, there are no way to manually control what channels/ frequencies to use for 2.4ghz or 5ghz, which also could've helped.

  • Maybe you can set 2.4ghz channel for your sorround system/ home theater?

I don't work for Google.

Hi, everyone.
As we haven't had any activity here recently I'm going to go ahead and close the thread. If you have more to add, feel free to start a new discussion.
