I've been using WifiManager a lot, but mostly with 2.4GHz. Now I just got this ESP32C5 and I tried to setup WifiManager on it. When connecting to my network, it gives me this error message:

E (80798) wifi:Sta has connected to AP in channel 100(5G), channel number 1 is out of supported 5G channel range of AP *wm:[ERROR] disconnect configportal - softAPdisconnect FAILED *wm:config portal exiting
