AiMesh on a GT-BE98 and two GT-AX6000

[Daluk]

Hello, I have the following AiMesh configuration: master - GT-BE98 and two AX6000 nodes with a wired backhaul.
I wanted to create two wireless networks: Network 1 for older devices (2.4+5-1 channels 36-64) and Network 2 for new devices (5-2 channels 100-177)+6), and have the nodes extend Network 1.
But this doesn't work because the nodes always extend the 5-2 range.
Therefore, the only way to force the nodes to extend the 5-1 range is to disable the 5-2 radio module.
Is there another way to force the system to use the 5-1 range for AiMesh?

You may, or may not, be running into the limitation of how Guest Networks are extended to AiMesh nodes. Per Asus:
[Wireless Router] How to set up Guest Network features to Sync to AiMesh node?

2. This feature can only be configured on the AiMesh router. Guest network is currently designed to allow the first set of each band (2.4G, 5G, 5G-1) available to the AiMesh node. Only one set is available for each band.
