So, with this uptick of WiFi-6 and 7, Ubiquiti offers bandwidth steering. Where it tries to steer clients towards using 5GHz or so. Does anyone use it? Or do you have it off? Or do you keep 2 separate networks. One for the 2.4GHz, and one for the 5GHz… ??? I am asking is because I am installing 4 Ubiquiti APs. 2 of the new Enterprise UC6-Enterprise, and 2 of the outdoor mesh clients.

I have 2 ssids 1 for 2.4ghz and 1 for 5ghz. I imagine that’s probably ok for most but I’ve seen people do more depending on if they want to have a separate network for IOT devices and if there should be a guest network.
Band steering isn’t something I’d consider in a typical home network. I do enough admin work at work.
Therapist told me the same thing. She said, my hobbies sound like more work but at home.
I’m a fan of one network - let your devices decide what band they want to use.
Except I encourage my workstation to use 5GHz by making it the preferred bank in the network adapter setting - because the speed is significantly faster.
For tv’s and stuff, fast enough is fast enough.
