If the ISP router is set to 5ghz channel only, and/or only use latest wifi standard, it could be older devices only accept 2.4ghz channel and/or old WiFi b/g/n standard. Modifying the channels broadcast and legacy WiFi standards may help.

But there could be other issues to do with SSID and password.
