    My new laptop seems to be connecting to 2.4ghz instead of 5ghz. I have the DECO TP-Link 6e mesh network and Deepin 20.8 is deciding on connecting to 2.4GHZ. Is there a way to force the connection to see 5Ghz? I'm not interested in 6e since I do not think it will connect to 6Ghz. I am running Xanmod 6.1.12-x64v3-xanmod1 installed so technically yes, it should see 6Ghz band.

    Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: AC:15:A2:B1:9D:8C
    Bit Rate=573.5 Mb/s Tx-Power=3 dBm
    Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
    Power Management:off
    Link Quality=69/70 Signal level=-41 dBm
    Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
    Tx excessive retries:4 Invalid misc:1 Missed beacon:0

    #2 above is what really matters provided all other conditions are met. With different SSIDs you don't have to "force" anything, simply don't connect to the 2.4GHz SSID.
