Splitting Frequencies to 2.4G and 5.0G
5G Home Internet System
When I create a 2.4G gateway frequency my download speed decreases to ~40M from a typical 250M to 350 M. I'm I missing something the creation process? When I use the 2.4G frequency it yields an excellent device signal strength but decreases the speed to ~40M like it's being throttled.

There's a couple bits to note. This is a bit of a known issue (I've posted in other forums).
2.4GHz spectrum typically has a limited amount of spectrum (based back in the old days), while 5GHz has a lot more
With defaults of 2.4GHz/5GHz, speeds are typically 200-350Mbps for me, but when I disable 2.4GHz, speeds hit +900Mbps.
I wouldn't recommend 2.4GHz to anyone unless they need it for range.
