How to limit backhaul frequencies?

Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.7.1

My Deco M5 mesh interferes with a 3rd party local 2,4 GHz connection (not wi-fi).
Deco is set to use 'only 5 Ghz', and I have run the interference tool in the Deco app, but still creates intermittent noise in the 2,4 GHz band while Deco is switched on.

 

Can I limit the backhaul to not use the 2,4 GHz band?

 

Thanks

Jorgen

Hi, welcome to the community.

May I know what is this "3rd party local 2,4 GHz connection (not wi-fi)"?

Are you able to connect Deco units via Ethernet cables?

Currently, the 2.4GHz wireless Backhaul can not be disabled.

Thank you very much and best regards.

Thank you David!

 

The 3rd party device is a Sony Bravia KDL-40EX1 digital TV consisting of a TV screen and media box connected through a wireless connection.

I was wrong about the bandwidth, according to the manual the TV uses OFDM wireless transmission on the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz range.

I have now changed the Deco to provide 2.4 GHz WLAN only, but the problem is still there.

 

So I should rephrase the question: Is it possible to disable the 5 GHz band in the Backhaul?

 

Unfortunately it is physically impossible to rearrange mesh routers or to connect them with Ethernet cables.

Any other ideas?

 

Many thanks

Jorgen
