Hi I have new WiFi room stats and they need to connect to a 2.4ghz WiFi. I have the now tv hub two which I've read online uses both 2.4ghz and 5ghz . My stats won't connect so I'm guessing its using the 5 ? How would i go about changing it over? Tech is not my strong point

Hub Two is dual-band (2.4GHz and 5 GHz). Splitting these bands to create 2 different Wi-Fi networks can help to improve the speed to your devices. Here’s how to do it:

If you haven't got access to a laptop with an Ethernet cable you can skip step 1 of @gavs82008 useful instructions, where you just need a PC, Laptop, Tablet, Smartphone with an internet browser on it to access the NowTV Hub 2 webpage settings to split the 5ghz & 2.4ghz wifi bands on the Router.

What would my username and password for 192.168.0.1 be?

It’s usually admin and admin?

Got in now. However there is no option to select “wireless” I just have router status, attached devices, back up settings, set password, diagnostics and router upgrade

Hi @Anonymous User
I am assuming you are using the NOW Hub Router 2 ?
When you open the Hub Router via your internet browser web settings towards the top left there should be a wireless tab and once you click on it you will be prompted for the username & password, where you type admin & nowtv (all lower case).
Then once the default username & password is accepted you should see two tab screen pages with 2.4ghz & 5ghz, then follow the step by step instructions previously mentioned on this thread and hit the green Apply button.
You need to make the necessary changes on both 2.4ghz & 5ghz screen tabs.
if you get stuck, then hold in the reset button on the back of the Router for about 15 seconds and then try again.

thank you for the advice in this article - it is helpful. However, I have tried the username admin with pw nowtv and also with password admin but neither is working for me. Is there a new username and pw I should try?

It should be admin for username and nowtv for the password.
