Hello, can anyone recommend a home wifi camera that will work using 5ghz wifi, I've switched to Sky broadband and they use VOIP & 5ghz, I've ordered a couple from Amazon that state they will work on 5ghz but don't, I know there is a way of switching to 2.4ghz but I'm not that technical minded and it looks a bit of a faff. Thank you.

Like most modern routers, the Sky broadband hub has both 2.4 and 5Ghz WiFi. Lots of older devices (phones and tablets) do not have 5GHz capabilities.
The Sky hub combines the two bands into a single SSID. It's a trvial matter to split them and give them different names (such as My24 and My50) by logging into the admin app. This is a lot less faff than buying and returning different cameras until you get one that works.
