I have the Panoramic WiFi, which supports both 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz network. Anyway, my understanding is that if you are using a device (i.e.: Cell phone) that is only capable of accessing the 2.4 ghz ...

you might consider getting a new phone!!!
i've got a 5 year old iphone6+ that's only used on wi-fi, says it's connected to 5g on my pano admin page.
the phone isn't capable of 5g service!
The iPhone 6 Plus supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac on wireless LAN. 5g is a cellular network from mobile device to tower.
Although some phones are dual-band LAN, the phones probably only have 1 stream. Meaning, no MIMO.
my point was old technology..+ would be nice if the op ever says what phone is having the panoramic speed issues.
panoramic 500/10 plan:
i just did an ookla wi-fi test on the 6+ & 8+, 2 years diff in tech, both hand me down phones, from the same location, same server.
6+ 183 down, 8+ 522 down!
If OP is to invest, stop renting and buy a better router.
