The specs for your router indicate that it only has the 5.0 GHz option.

Since I only have a Wi-Fi 6 tri-band router that supports the 2.4 GHz and two 5.0 GHz bands, I don't know how a router works that comes with a 6.0 GHz Wi-Fi band.

 

But based on the above specs for your router, it appears to be the same as mine...one 2.4 GHz band and two 5.0 GHz bands.

 

I only connect my AX devices to one of the 5.0 GHz bands, and anything less goes on the other 5.0 GHz band.

O ok well if it is not broke and it appears to be working fine.  I will continue to use it.  I got it set to work in mixed mode 2.4ghz, 5ghz and 6ghz. The laptop in question is set for 6ghz and I have one desktop computer in 6ghz. One desktop computer in my office hardwired which is pulling full ISP subscribed plan. 3  Smart tv's  65inch, 55inch, 65 inch streaming 5ghz, Security system 2,4ghz, 2 Andriod Cells 5 ghz,  Garage door opener 2.4 ghz, 2 chromebooks 5ghz, and Officejet printer that I had to setup another SSID name for just WPA/WPA2 becuse could not get it to connect to my SSID WPA2/WPA3 so now I have 2 SSID's  just the second one is named just a little bit different for the printer only.  Is it okay to leave the laptop and the desktop in WPA3 ?

You should be fine with that.

Thanks a lot for all of your help.  I greatly appreciate it.  Everything is good.  Have a great Evening. 🙂

You're very welcome.

 

You have a great evening too and enjoy the much better Wi-Fi speeds the Intel AX210 provides.

 

What a cost effective and easy upgrade to do.

HP Recommended

Agreed much better card and very cost effective. Can not beat the upgrade to an old laptop. This allows me to keep  it and the desktops that I upgraded much longer.
