Can't connect PC on 5 GHZ band

I have a new laptop with Dell WLAN 1510 card in it. I tried to connect on teh 5 ghz band but it just failed, as soon as I set the router to 2.4 ghz band it connected OK. Do I need to do anything special to connect at 5 ghz such as different encryption or channel etc?

What is the model no of the Router....?
Try to change the wireless channel on the router and check if that helps !!!

TS2756 iOS personal hotspot does not let any device connect after a connection from a 5 GHz band

I used my iPhone 5 with latest iOS version. When I connect my iphone to a 5GHz band at home and then ON the Personal Hotspot (PH), my ipad mini retina can't connect to the wifi of the iphone, it said "Unable to connect". I tried it with my laptop and got the same result. But if I disconnect it from the 5GHz and reconnect to a 2.4GHz band (at home too), then turn on PH, it will let other device connect normally.
I know that I can solve the problem by connect to a 2.4GHz and then turn on PH. But the problem is when I go out, every wifi around me is password protected, and I need to share PH to my laptop. it just won't connect. Do a Network reset solve the problem too, but when I come back home and connect to my 5GHz band, the problem still raise, PH will not let any device connect to it until I connect my iphone to a 2.4GHz and then turn on PH again.

Hi, thanks for your answers.
I have tried bluetooth tethering and it does work, but often i find has the same issue after a few minutes or if i let my device sleep, i have to reinitiate the hotspot. Whats worse is that i can go into the hotspot settings sometimes and it says "NOW DISCOVERABLE!" but nothing can see it, not my iPad, not my laptop, nor any other wifi enabled device until i toggle Hotspot off and on again.
Also, distance is an issue. Occasionally I like leaving my iPhone to charge on my desk to charge as tethering beats the battery up and if i go to the room next door, the bluetooth drops. If i don't come back within range in a few seconds, the hotspot becomes undiscoverable and I have to go through the process again. Overall this has not been a feasible solution for my issues.
As for resetting the network settings, I had to do this initially when I upgraded to iOS 5 as the Personal hotspot setting disappeared entirely. I had to do a full network reset, and reboot my handset once more for Personal hotspot to even return as a usable option but it didn't help the flakiness. This isn't an iOS 5 new issue though, as i said, it's been happening since 4.3...
All these super annoying first world pains eh? Again, thanks for your feedback but it doesn't help my particular issues.

Airport Express as a wireless bridge can't connect using the 2.4GHz band

I have an Airport Extreme with simultaneous dual-band support as well as an Airport Express serving as a wireless bridge to extend the range of my primary base station.

By the way, the 5GHz band does not penetrate very well,
That is not surprising since the higher frequency signals are not as strong as 2.4 GHz signals. Many users are finding that you almost have to have a line-of-sight situation between the computer and router for 5 GHz to work really well.
and the signal becomes weaker significantly after it penetrates through two walls.
Again, not surprising. What is surprising is that the AirPort Express was choosing the 5 GHz band to "extend", as it normally latches onto the stronger of the two signals, which almost always the 2.4 GHz signal.
You may be correct that the newer firmware has made some changes in this regard. My guess would be that most users were trying to extend the 5 GHz band and not having much success. We'll keep an eye on this.

Time Capsule - 2GB - Can't connect to existing 5-GHz network

Just purchased the Time Capsule - I was going to try to connect it to my existing 5-GHz network - but every time I try - it seems to get stuck in an infinite loop of trying to connect... If I try to instead connect it to my existing 2.4-GHz network - it works ok.
Any suggestions?!?
Thanks.

Welcome to the disussions!
Can you clarify where you have the Time Capsule located in relation to your router that is creating the 5 GHz network? If it's in another room or area, how many walls must the signal pass through from the main router to the Time Capsule?

Connect to 5 GhZ Band on Cisco E3000 (with Macbook Pro)

Hi,
I just recently bought the Cisco E3000 and I set it up and such and everything works great (set-up ran through my computer). The only problem I have is that my own macbook pro won't connect to the 5 Ghz band and I don't know how to make it connect to it. My brother's old macbook and new macbook connect fine to the 5 Ghz. And my parent's older PC laptops connect to the 2.4 Ghz band. I googled this problem and I saw that other people tried to assign a different name to the 5 Ghz band and then to assign the computer's preference to that but I don't know how to create a unique name for each band.
Please help me!! Thanks a ton!!! Any help would be appreciated!!

Which network adapter you are using on your Mac computer....?
Make sure that the adapter you are using on your Mac computer should 5Ghz network.If it support then,you can try by changing the wireles channel on the router.To change the channel or the network name on the router,open the Cisco Connect software and go to Advance settings,there you can open the setup page of the router and make the required changes.

Can not connect to wireless Internet with iTouch but I can with iPod on same network.

How do I fix the issue that my iTouch won't recognize my network but my iPod will?

What model iPod will connect?
Are yu saying that no networks appear in the iPod?
Is this the problem?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
Is the router onlu set of 5 GHz N band? An iPod touch can only see/connect to 2.4 GHz band networks.
We need more information..

Can I see if my macbook pro is connected with the 2.4 or 5 GHz bands?

Airport extreme with dual band, my computer can choose between the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands automatically...
Can I see which band my macbook pro is using? Is there a way? I am very curious which one it chooses and when.

Yes you can. There are several ways - some direct and some indirect. Here's a couple you can try:
Method 1. Quick and Dirty
Click on the Airport menu icon in Finder when holding down the option-key. A greyed-out list appears with useful information you can use to deduct what you're connected to.
- If the channel number is over 14, you are on the 5 GHz band. This is assuming that you have set up your networks so that the 5 GHz band is exclusively 802.11n and the 2.4 GHz is not 802.11n compatible,
Method 2. Being sure.
Open Airport Utility, select your AEBS and click Manual Setup. Look at the line that says "2.4 GHz / 5 GHz Airport IDs". There you can see the network ID for the 2.4 GHz radio and the 5 GHz radio respectively. Now check the SSID number in the Airport menu as above (pressing the Option key, of course). It will be either one of the Airport IDs you just checked - the 2.4 GHz or the 5 GHz - and that's the one you're connected to.
Hope this helped.
Cheers.

How can I tell if WES610N is using 5 GHz band?

Hello,
I'm using a WES610N Media Connector with my Blu-Ray player to stream video. The router is an EA3500 -- I used the smart, one-touch WiFi setup to do the setup for the WES610N.
How can I tell if the Media Connector is using the 5 GHz band vs. the 2.4 GHz band?
Is there a way t interrogate it while it is connected to my Blu-Ray player in another room?
Thanks in advance,
Bill

Yes. Agreed with sabretooth. There's no way for us to identify on what band your WES610N is connected to unless you'll create a different SSID's on both 2.4 and 5.0 Ghz bands.
If everyone needs to believe in something, I believe I'll have another beer..

Can I dedicate the 5 GHz band to one specific devise?

I've got the new Dual band n Airport Extreme (AE) that I would like to dedicate the 5GHz band to one specific devise and have all others use 2.4. My goal is giving the most 'horsepower' to my work laptop upstairs, all others can use the 2.4. Being on another floor, I need all the help I can get with strong connections and good performnace.
Short and sweet bullets include:
Current Devices:
-Dell laptop for work. 5GHz band card will be installed shortly.
-iMac, Lion OS, 3 mos old. Recently hard wired to the AE as perofrmance was spotty when connected wirelessly even though the AE is 20 ft away.
-iPhone 4s, iPhone 4, iPad (1st gen)
-HP printer wirelessly connected to the AE
-An old Droid I connect to the internet once in a blue moon
-A blue ray player (rarely use to stream Nexflix)
-HD TV with access to Netflix, etc (rarly use)
Smat folks will quickly notice only the laptop can access the 5GHz band given my iMac (only devise 5Ghz) is hardwired. That will change....Apple TV will be purchased. Also, 1 yr old son may say "hey this cord looks great, why I dont I pull it to see what falls first, the iMac or AE". This question answers near-term questions as I expand devices and helps really prepair for my next 2-3 devices.
I understand the process of setup a seprate name for the 5GHz band. Guidance needed- How do you "point" the laptop to the 5GHz band. I've looked fo the option on my iMac (previos to hardwiring it) wiht no luck. My chaallenge is figuring out how have the laptop read adn connect to the 5GHz band automatically...I don't have the setup to automatically have devised choose which band whey would like to use. i've looked numerous arcieles and I can find where people describe in sufficien detail >>>>Please be as specific as possible on each step is required to get my laptop to recogize and connect with the 5GHz band.
Some addtl questions
1- Can I tell which devise is connected with an n, g, b, whatever band? I dont want anything degreading the bandwitch of the 2.4 GH2 band.
Can you tell which devises are using those bands (n,g, ?) bands. As i understand, in this specific case, if I have 20 different devisce all using the 4Ghz band, I want to make sure my laptop gets the best performance.
Thanks!

You already have assigned a separate name to the 5 GHz band on the router, so to have a Mac connect to that band, you would do the following:
Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Open Network
Click on AirPort or Wi-Fi
Click Advanced at the lower right
Make sure that the name of the 5 GHz network is first in line at the top of the connection order list. Drag it to the top if it's not already there.
Delete any other networks that you no longer need by clicking on them to highlight them, and then clicking the - (minus) button at the bottom of the list.
Make sure that there is a check mark next to "Remember networks this computer has joined"
No other boxes should be checked
Then open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access, locate the listing for the networks that you no longer needed, and delete the entry for each of them.
I would like to see how (b/g or n) my other devises are connecting to the Airport Extreme.
Open AirPort Utillty 5.x, select the AirPort Extreme, and click Manual Setup
Click on Wireless Clients about 2/3 of the way down the page
The window will display the MAC address of each wireless device along with info about the connection. You will need to do a bit of investigative work to figure out which MAC address matches up with each wireless device.
My understanding is that a router will use the lowest of the connections (if one devise is connecting via b, all other devises will connect b).
No, that is a common tale that we hear, but it is not correct. Each wireless device will connect to either 2.4 GHz or 5 Ghz based on its capabilities. It will do the same as far as whether it connects at "n", "g", or "b" speeds. For example, my laptop connects at "n" speeds while my old iPhone connects at "g" speed. The slower iPhone connection has virtually no impact on the "n" connection with the laptop.
I used a wi-fi analyzer to determine the best channel, and it indicated chanel 14 was the best.
If you are in the U.S. or Canada, then you can only use channels 1-11 on the 2.4 GHz band. The U.K. uses channels 1-13.

IPad remote app on 5 ghz band

Can anyone help? On my ipad original and iPad 3 I cannot get the remote app to work for connecting to Apple TV or iTunes library when using the 5 ghz band of my NETGEAR wndr 3700 router. It displays the symbols in the remote app fine but after a while returns message that it cannot connect. If I revert to 2.4 ghz all works fine! I struggle to see what is wrong because my Apple TV and my pc running iTunes are both connected permanently to the 5 ghz band. The router has Ben rebooted and firmware is upto date. When using airplay from my iPads to the Apple TV using the 5 ghz channel all works absolutely great. It's just the remote app that won't work. But in 2.4 ghz connection on my iPads it then w irks great and fast. I think maybe a remote app (2.4 version) bug? Any ideas? Original ipad runs ios 5.1.1 and iPad 3 runs ios 6.01
Everything else works normally including streaming apps etc on 5 ghz it's just the remote app

There may be an issue using the Netgear router, but Remote works fine on my Apple Time Capsule's 5Ghz network controlling both my 1G and 2G ATVs.

[SOLVED] Intel 7260 Vaio can't connect to wifi

Hi there,
First off, I should mention that I know my way around Linux but I'm pretty new to Arch, so there might be things that I know that don't apply here.
So, I have this problem with this network, I can't connect to it and frankly I don't know why. I was on Ubuntu until a few days ago and I still had the problem. I posted on the Ubuntu forum >>here<< and I was told to upgrade, but as I've been willing to move to Arch for quite some time, I thought that was maybe the time. BUT, the problem is still there, which worries me.
To sum it up, about one or two weeks ago, I was connecting fine to this network (ZyXEL) and then after a reboot, no way to connect to it, no matter what I try. I have noticed an error message that keeps coming back all the time (see below) and the wifi indicator in i3status sometimes flashes me with an IP while I'm trying to connect then eventually the network disappears (not with wicd, only nm). Those are basically the symptoms.

I have had troubles with the wifi in the past (from what I read on the internet, this card is not yet fully supported everywhere) but nothing like this. Usually, disconnecting and reconnecting did the trick, sometimes I had to restart NetworkManager in extreme cases, but nothing more.
I tried a lot of things (modprobe, rfkill, firmware update, etc), rebooted everything I could but couldn't do anything. I have found bug reports and forums posts of similar problems but the solutions there either didn't work for me or the problem just seem to have disappeared for some people. I read that this card was not really supported before the kernel 3.11 or 3.13 but now I have 3.16 and it's still there. What's really bugging me is that I could successfully connect to this network a couple weeks ago...
On the Ubuntu forum, they have a script that displays useful information when posting about wireless problems. I have taken off the Ubuntu specific bits and I think this will save you some time asking me to run commands. One thing is not mentioned in the script: I use wicd.

I have the exact same problem, appeared completely random. I had several restarts this Christmas on the laptop, even after upgrades. I blamed the ath driver. But I noticed when I restart the router by plugging out it from the wall, then in again, sometimes it's working.
I carefully changed every possible settings in the router, then I found if I disable IPv6 (yes, it's capable of that despite Sky does not provide IPv6 service) it started to work even after multiple reboots. It took mi a while since the new year.
I'm using connman and when it was wrong, connman was completely frozen. If I entered "connmanctl scan wifi", it never quit. Same for "connmanctl state".
I also noticed that the router LED was blinking continuously and on the laptop when I checked the connection status with ifconfig it showed very high usage of TX packets. It also blocked the whole wifi, so my phone was not able to access the internet. Strange problem, I'm unsure what caused it and not quite sure how disabling IPv6 solved it. But I'm also afraid that maybe somewhere else I can't disable IPv6 on the router.

5.0 GHz band on Q5?

Hi, Does the BlackBerry Q5 can use the 5 GHz band of a Wi-Fi network? I found this page where it says "[...] your device tries to connect in the 5.0 GHz band unless the signal strength at the 2.4 GHz [...]" but I found multiple threads where people say it just can't use the 5 GHz band at all : http://help.blackberry.com/en/blackberry-q5/10.3.2/help/mes1335375421330.html Thanks alot for your answers!

I've got a dual band router and it does not see the 5Ghz band.

Macbook pro retina 15 after update OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 can't connect wifi with Channel Width 40 HMz

macbook pro retina 15 after update OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 can't connect wifi with Channel Width 40 HMz

That's odd. I assume this is the 5 GHz band, right?
Have you tried changing the router to do auto 20/40?
Have you tried deleting and reconnecting to the wifi network?

Excite 10 won't function on Wifi "N" GHz Band

I have 2 locations, one with a Linksys E3000 and the other with Netgear WNDR3700. At both locations the Excite 10 will not find the SSID of the GHz N band, and will give an "out of range" when added. At both locations I can detect the N band and G band on my Ipad and Samsung Tab 10, and connect to either with both. The Excite will only detect and connect to the 2.4 Ghz "G" band.
Anyone operating an Excite 10 on the 5 Ghz "N" Band?

Thanks, you are correct. I mistakenly thought the N mode was in the 5 GHz band. My tablet shows a connection speed of 65 Mbps. I understand that anything over 54 or 56 Mbps shows you are operating in the N mode. Thanks to all for the enlightenment.
