Not sure who your comment is directed at or what your point is.
I have a device that I want to be on the 6ghz Wifi 6E band the majority of the time, and fall back to the 5ghz Wifi 6 band when out of range of 6ghz, and back and forth without having to manually intervene.
That doesn't seem like a very unique or uncommon request. But it has seemingly been impossible for me to solve reliably.
I've tried having separate SSID's entirely, combining the SSIDs without Smart Connect, and I am seemingly unable to even test whether Smart Connect with steering configured would do the trick since the Smart Connect rules page is bugged.
There's no control on the phone side to prioritize 6E, so what other options do I have other than telling my router to send suggestion packets via Smart Connect rules?
6GHz is said to have less penetration/range than 5Ghz. You may have to use different SSIDs and manually band steer your clients to have it your way.
