5 6 Set High Speed Mode
The High Speed feature switches off one of the wireless bands to leave one high-
performance, super-fast network, ideal for HD streaming and gaming applications.
If most of your devices are connected to one wireless band, this feature can increase
the overall performance of your wireless network.
Note:
Before enabling this feature, make sure that your extender is in Range Extender mode and not in a OneMesh network,
and then go to
Settings
>
Wireless
>
Extended Network
to check that the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands are both enabled.
Additionally, if you are going to disable the 2.4GHz network, it’s recommended to first make sure all your wireless devices
support 5GHz network connection.

other band will be disabled.

mode and choose to transmit 2.4GHz band or 5GHz band only.
