Is the router a new Wifi6 unit, and is whatever wifi card you installed also wifi 6 capable?

Having the model information for both components is useful.

On most 5 GHz routers, you must enable a second network for 2.4 GHz operation (this is usually off by default if the router came from your internet service provider).
