ipads not connecting to home internet

Thanks for the update. I just found another conversation on connecting wireless thermostats and the issue that they were having.
1. Open the T-mobile Internet app
2. Go to the Network tab at the bottom
3. Click on the "+" sign to add a network
4. Add in the information for a 2nd network and change the frequency band to 2.4 GHz.
Done. Now you have 2 networks and 1 is 2.4 only.
I used following via the T-Mobile app and created a 2nd WIFI at 2.4 GHz, WPA2 and AES WUPA Encryption Mode. This might be a better option without impacting the security options on the router. I'm also hopeful when we install a new WIFI thermostat that it will allow us to use either network.

I looked and saw that my system was already set up for automatic switching between 5G and 2.4G. The only thing that worked for allowing me to connect my Ipod (5th gen) was change the security settings to WAP. I'll change it back to the recommended setting when I finish reconfiguring my Sonos system.... Don't want to have a compromised security set up.
