> They will do so regardless of which AP or SSID they are connected to, though, as the channel is a shared physical medium. In a multi-ap setup you can isolate those 2.4ghz devices to their own, short range said that allows very permissive datarates. Then everything else gets 5ghz or 6ghz with mediumish output power and restricting the lower data rates. This prevents clients that move to the edge of the coverage zone from hitting lower data rates and dragging the whole channel or SSID or both down. It just depends on your setup, number of APs, type of devices, device demands, etc.
