Questions and Answers

1. Which network should I use?

If you are connected to the Advanced Wi-Fi Modem or Extender from a close distance, 5G is the better

choice.

At farther distances, connect to the 2.4G network.

the two networks at any time.

2. It only connect to the 2.4G network, I don’t see the 5G network on my device?

If you want a 5G signal, you must have a dual band WiFi Router. If you only have a traditional 2.4G

WiFi Router, you will not see the 5G network and your computer only be able to connect to the 2.4G

network.
