So I recently updated my router to use the same ssid for the 2. 4ghz and 5ghz band. I noticed my phone prefers to use the 2.4ghz band instead of 5ghz.

Anyone here know if our phone has band steering capability? Any 3rd party apps anyone can recommend?

Thank you.

Alam ko router nag nagde-decide kung anong connection ang best sa bawat devices na naka-connect, kung 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz. If lagi nasa 2.4Ghz then the router thinks that 2.4Ghz is better for your phone.

Sakin kasi 2 SSID and naka-broadcast, one 2.4Ghz ssid and one 5Ghz ssid, kaya nakakapili ako kung saan ko gusto i-connect phone ko

Yes i thought my router can do that too. Kanin.a ko pa kinakalikot router settings ko pero parang wala syang way mag prioritize ng band per device. I'm using an Asus AC59U router. It's just frustrating that my old huawei p10 and an old gen ipad is connected to the 5ghz band by default pero yung phone ko is using 2.4ghz kahit halos katabi ko na router. I also thought samsung would have an option to selext which band to prioritize.

Update : your answer made me think about how prioritization work, mukang tama nga. On my phone iremoved my connection details (forget network) and reconnected , ayun 5g na. Thanks!
