Even though you lowered the transmission mode of the 2.4GHz band, it is still sharing the same WiFi broadcast name as the 5GHz band.
Two separate options:

- Select SSID2, enable it, and name it differently from the 5GHz band. This will create an additional accessible 2.4GHz band. You may have to lower the transmission and/or encryption protocols for SSID2.
This work! Thank you very very much!!!! Have a nice day.
