The easiest thing to do is go into the router and change the default wifi name(s) to the old routers names so you would not need to change all of your wifi names in your phones/tablets/iot.
Better yet, you should never use the default wifi names (ssid), plus you should always use just 1 wifi name for both your 2.4 & 5ghz wifi networks. Let the device determine which network to use.

I agree with everything you said but I had some devices that were not connecting to my 2.4 network as they were trying to connect to the 5.0 network that had the same name. It was strange as they are 2.4ghz only devices. I had to use a different name for each network and that solved my issue.
