Dual Band Capability
Our fibre modems are Wi-Fi enabled and are dual band capable, operating in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The 2.4 GHz band is ideal for everyday use with web surfing, emailing and IM, while the 5 GHz band is less prone to interference and that makes it ideal for video streaming and gaming. With our simultaneous dual band routers, you get twice the flexibility, a dedicated network for video and gaming and the benefit of two separate wireless networks operating simultaneously from one modem.
