ROG 2 doesn't differentiate 2.4ghz and 5ghz?

My Rog phone 2 is connecting to 2.4Ghz bandwidth instead of 5Ghz . Can't the phone differentiate between 2.4 and 5Ghz? A 10k Mi note 5 pro is able to connect to 5ghz and my Oneplus 5t is able to connect. Why can't this gaming phone with 4 WiFi antennas connect to the fastest one?
I use 2.4 in my room as the router is in my hall and 5GHz doesn't have coverage in my room. But when I come to hall and turnoff wifi and turn it on, it still connects to 2.4GHz instead of 5GHz.

Sounds like faulty wifi driver, did you flash a raw file on the phone?

Try flashing raw file, that should fix the issue, however ur phone will be completely reset if I remember correcly.

2.4ghz is capable up to around 130mps (theoretical 150mps)

Do both wifi networks have the same name? or are they different?
