You can manually choose the band but it's a trade off:
The longer waves used by the 2.4 GHz band are better suited to longer ranges and transmission through solid objects. However, because so many devices use the 2.4 GHz band, the resulting interference can cause dropped connections and slower-than-expected speeds.
The 5 GHz band is much less congested, which means you will likely get more stable connections. You’ll also see higher speeds. On the other hand, the shorter waves used by the 5 GHz band makes it less able to penetrate solid objects. It’s also got a shorter effective range than the 2.4 band
The Spark automatically chooses band with strongest signal and least interference at the moment so I don't mess with that. Also turn off Bluetooth on phone and watch. Turn off WiFi on phone and use OTG cable for must solid signal.
