How to fix outdoor cameras

My new gateway modem is 5GHz and all my outdoor cameras  are 2.4GHz.  How do I fix?

@Jack Corey, You should be able to attach your 2.4G cameras to your 2.4G network since most gateways are dual band. -Allan, Cox Support Forums Moderator.

It's dual band but the app on my phone keeps getting the 5GHz and wont let me load them.  It wont recognize the cameras. Can I turn off 5 GHz until they get loaded or would I have to set up all new passwords.

@Jack Corey,

As long as you do not have Wifi Pods, I would suggest downloading the Cox Panoramic Wifi App in order to optimize your two networks (i.e. giving them different names). The link provided here should assist you: www.cox.com/.../cox-panoramic-wifi-app-features.html .

you need to have researched what camera requirements were before buying a 5ghz  modem.
