On handheld and media devices, I found an inflexibility with Wi-Fi Protected Setup (PBC and PIN), which is band selection, which means you cannot manually select the 5GHz band with less interference in some cases.
When you select one of your networks used by a dual-band router, you cannot use Wi-Fi Protected Setup in some cases.
Also, when you use Wi-Fi Protected Setup, it does not allow the selection of band (2.4GHz/5GHz) in some cases, which means it locks onto the band with the strongest signal on your dual-band router when Wi-Fi Protected Setup is used on it.
If I make dual-band wireless routers, I would include separate Wi-Fi Protected Setup buttons and PIN numbers (as well as separate PIN entries in the setup menus) for each band to address this inflexibility.
