Why is my 2.4 ghz wifi so slow?
What frequency band are you using? All too often, the culprit of slow Wi-Fi is use of the 2.4 GHz band, which offers slower data rates and is often oversaturated with Wi-Fi and non-Wi-Fi devices, like microwave or baby monitors. The FCC allows Wi-Fi to operate in two different frequency bands, the 2.4 and 5 GHz.

Should i use 5 or 2.4 ghz on ps5?
That's the gist in short: 2.4GHz for distance, 5GHz for speed. So, if your PS5 in within close range of your router, it only makes sense to use the 5GHz band to max out your speeds for everything from game downloads to online play.
