Question on StayConnect WiFi

Will this still work with two networks set up in my house, one for 2.4GHz and one for 5.0GHz?  I have a number of items that just would not work when connected to the 5.0GHz network even though it supposedly will adjust to 2.4GHz for those items that don't support 5.0GHz.

Thanks for your inquiry. I've found this for you. 

  • The StayConnect Wi-Fi equipment is not compatible with home networks that use multiple active gateways or modems. The Wi-Fi network must use only one network name (SSID) for your entire Wi-Fi network. For example, your 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands would both be accessible under the same name, allowing devices to seamlessly connect to the best available signal.
