Not possible. Either buy a cheap access point that can do 2.4ghz SSID only, connect it by cable to Nest Wifi. You could also repurpose an old router for this.

Or buy a different Wifi solution than Nest Wifi.

It has been like this for years, and Google does not seem to have any plans changing it.


I don't work for Google.

Hi, francog.
I just wanted to jump in real fast to see if you saw olavrb's reply and to see if you still needed some help on this or if you were able to get it sorted out. If you are still needing some help, just let us know and we'll be happy to continue helping.

hank you Jeff for your response and open to helping me, appreciate that gesture.

 
I ordered a 2.4 only extender and I will try it tomorrow. Been very busy and I should be able to try it tomorrow.
 
If that fails, I will reach out to you and hopefully I can get both of my garage door openers to work.
It's called MyQ garage door openers.
 
Thank you again Jeff and have a great day.
 
Regards
 
Frank
