Every WiFi router should have a setting that is “I have a stupid new ‘smart’ home device, so please turn off 5G for the next 10 minutes so I can set that up with 2.4ghz, and then put the network back to normal afterward”.

Oh god, I work in tech support for a small ISP and boy do I sympathize with this. I would add, every router should have a feature where, after setting up all the info to get connected to the internet, it saves it as the default setting. So when some dumbass presses the Reset button, it doesn't /1

erase everything and take the device offline. Maybe have a special double-press option to actually return it to factory defaults.
