Title: RAP6262(G) IOT ONLY SUPPORT 2.4G NOT 5G

please advise

Most IOT Devices do 2,4Ghz only.
Reason is the much lower cost, no need for high data rate in such applications and the better range of 2,4Ghz.
So with most vendors (and in this case Ruijie/Reyee) the IOT default configuration is 2,4Ghz only.

Dear all,
In response to your questions, the reason why the 5GHz band is not enabled on the IoT network is because the devices that work with IoT technology are configured to use the 2.4GHz band.

For coverage, the range in the 5GHz band is greater than in the 2.4GHz band due to antenna gain.

Best regards.
