Cisco 1941W - 2 different subnets on different frequency bands?

Hi,

 

     I am struggling / looking for a solution to have 2 different subnets on different frequency bands.  For example:  Is there a way to assign a subnet to the 2.4 band and a different subnet to the 5.0 band?  Maybe someone can give me an example to follow.  Currently, both bands are on the same subnet.

 

Thanks for everyone's help.

Hi,

 

     I thought of another possibility....What about using different SSID's assigned to different subnets / VLAN's regardless of the frequency band?

Configuring Wireless VLANs

If you use VLANs on your wireless LAN and assign SSIDs to VLANs you can create multiple SSIDs by using any of the four security settings defined in the “Security Types” section. A VLAN can be thought of as a broadcast domain that exists within a defined set of switches. A VLAN consists of a number of end systems, either hosts or network equipment (such as bridges and routers), connected by a single bridging domain. The bridging domain is supported on various pieces of network equipment such as LAN switches that operate bridging protocols between them with a separate group of protocols for each VLAN.
