So frustrating.
Granted, I hadn't noticed until I started moving Google Mesh WiFi points around.
I was then testing DL speeds and noticed that my iPhone was constantly maxing around 40 mbs.
Then found, that even when in the same room as the router, my iPhone would default and stick to the 2.4Ghz connection.

I know that I can setup my home to have a 5Ghz SSID and a 2.4Ghz and force it that way, but with over 50 devices, that overly complicates the management.

Is this unique or common? Any tips on how to get the phone to not use 2.4 Ghz?
