Disable 2.4 band WiFi - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5

Does anyone know if there is a way to disable the 2.4 band on our phones? I want to force my phone to run strictly 5.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Set your router to 5ghz only.

I'm not looking for a router solution. I am looking for a solution on the phone. I shouldn't have to set my router to 5.

I don't see how forgetting the network SSID is going to resolve what I am trying to do. Is there something that I am missing here?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

I should add that my previous Samsung phone allowed me to strictly use the 5ghz band in the advanced WiFi options. This phone doesn't seem to have that option or capability unless it's hidden elsewhere.

havent tried it, it seems to only happen when an initial connection is made.
my phone would do that every now and then even before the update. usually cycling the wifi off then on would take care of it, or i'd just leave it alone and it would take care of itself
Mine doesnt.
just did my phone and is fine not having that issue.
Just turn mobile data off

Wifi turns on by itself.

My wifi will turn on all by itself. Anyone have this issue?

My phone asks me for my wifi passwords when I go from one network to the next. If I'm on my home wireless then want to connect to my works hot spot it will want the password. Same for when I get home and want to connect to home wifi.

Not understanding what you are trying to ask?

No question. More of a statement. My phone is not remembering my ssid's and passwords that are associated with them all the time. It forgets them in other words and I have to re type them in. Something I shouldn't have to do.

Sounds like a software issue with your specific device. Mine remembers and switches wifi networks without issues.

As far as I know it will only transmit to one output at a time.

It has worked well for me. Keep in mind that it comes pre-installed as I guess 14 days trial and there after, it wont work. Maybe you just used them up?
No I have a subscription.. The application itself is broken.

Have you tried Going into Settings/Apps/All/T-mobile Name ID? Force stop it, wipe cache, data & uninstall updates.
I hadn't done that yet but sure enough that fixed it. Cheers.
