Unable to Change WI-FI Channels

Hi,

My internet went live today and when I tried to configure the wi-fi I couldn't figure out how to change the channels.

 

What I'm trying to do is optimise my network by disabling the 2.4GHz band and stick just to 5GHz, on a channel below 40 as my Roku streaming device can't connect to anything above that.

 

What would a possible solution be?

Thank you!

No easy solution to user channel selection…. The feature was removed by VF some time ago and never re-instated despite the problems it creates for many users.

There is (or was) a work-round which involved obtaining an older android version of the app which still has the channel management feature etc.  A thread on here gives details but whether it still works… ?  I'll have a look for the thread but no guarantees on me finding it.

 

Edited to add:  Have a read of this post:  https://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Other-broadband-queries/Can-I-change-my-home-broadband-channel/m-p/2...  and those following on from it.

The first question is are you on Pro?

Vodafone seem to have tied down the Wi-Fi options even further for those on Pro.
