BandModifier5Ghz=0
Made iwd forget about the network as Mortimer Houghton said, rebooted and reconnected to the network.
It seems it worked, it indeed connected through 2.4GHz networt, but I can't be 100% sure because sometimes it on its own connect to 2.4Ghz even though it's rare.
I think the issue is solved. Thank you all!

Alternatively, you can just exclude it from the auto-start networks:
]]>I have a double-band home router that works on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
The problem is that the 5GHz signal is much worse than 2.4GHz and I experience issues with connection when I connected to the 5GHz network.
The router uses the same SSID for both bands, so the band is selected automatically.
Of course I can configure the router to use different SSIDs for different bands, but I don't want to, just want to configure my laptop with linux to use 2.4GHz.
I use KDE with NetworkManager and I don't see any option to force backend wireless driver to use a specific band.
How can I force IWD to use 2.4GHz network instead of 5GHz? Can I force IWD to use a specific band for a specific SSID instead of all?
Thanks in advance!
