Does anyone know if the wifi supports both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands?

Dear Cav949, Thanks for your inquiry. The RX-V677 supports the 2.4 Ghz band only. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

I purchased the Cisco Linksys WET610N with has a 5.0ghz channel as well as the 2.4. So far it works perfectly and using the CD was a snap to set up.Linda

your processor speed has nothing to do with wireless radio signal frequency. you would need to check your computer's wifi radio transmitter or "wifi band protocol" that is operates on such as the older "a/b/g/n". the 5ghz wifi radio protocol is what this router uses for the newer "ac" (wave of the future) band protocol. details about the abilities of these different letter bands can be found in a google search of on CNET.com. Unless you have some supe'd up computer or wireless device, not a lot of devices are capable yet of using the AC protocol and will likely communicate with this router using the current "n" or older "g" band protocols. your processor speed has nothing to do with wireless radio signal frequency. you would need to check your computer's wifi radio transmitter or "wifi band protocol" that is operates on such as the older "a/b/g/n". the 5ghz wifi radio protocol is what this router uses for the newer "ac" (wave of the future) band protocol. details about the abilities of these different letter bands can be found in a google search of on CNET.com.

When you are in the location where you router is located and operating, go to WiFi in your phone settings and turn WiFi off momentarily, and then back on again, to get the phone searching for WiFi signals. If your phone is capable of handling both bands, it will find both bands and show them. Select the band you prefer. If your phone only finds the 2.4 Ghz band, it probably is not a dual N band phone.

Not just a device like an iPad 2, but a dual band network card in your computers, too. You'll mostly see only 2.4ghz on anything labeled N150...the N300 stuff will also have the 5ghz band.

The 5 supports dual band wifi and has additional hardware improvements I believe. They look the same and both work great. You can find additional comparisons online.

It is not compatible with a 2.4 GHz adapter. It is strictly 5 GHz. If you need 2.4 GHz, purchase an access point with that capability included.

It's dual band N. It has 2 separate 802.11N based connections. (2.4 Ghz, 5Ghz) And one for G (2.4 Ghz). It offers higher throughput if you have hardware on the other end that supports dualband N.

This modem/router is an 802.11n dual band WiFi router, meaning it broadcasts across both the 2.4Ghz and 5 Ghz spectrums. It does so separately, so you can connect both 802.11ac and 802.11n devices, or disable one of the antennas to use only one of those portions of the spectrum.

It is supposed to extend both 2.4 and 5GHz but mine would only see the 2.4GHz band. I ended up returning mine. Also I would not the range on these devices is not near that of a normal wireless router. It is not a bad little device but if you have big expectations for additional range you may be disappointed.

Yes, 5GHz is 5GHz. But this antenna is only 1 element and not dual polarity so you won't be able to take advantage of the advanced features of ac such as mimo and multi channel. I would suggest a ubiquiti product for full ac features.

This part definitely supports both 2.4 and 5 GHz; I'm currently using it at 5GHz. But I think I'm using 802.11n; max throughput is around 240-270 Mb/s (using Linux Mint 16 and an Intel wifi PCIe card). So I can't say about 802.11ac.

I just bought this model yesterday (1/28) @ Bestbuy and the AC Wireless works well and does support both 2.4 / 5 ghz bands. I was connected at 240 mbps with only 3/5 bars signal strength and had no issues at all (unsure of what the difs are between the bestbuy version and the amazon product featured here)

Yes, all WRT54GL routers operates on 2.4GHz only. As for the version number, it can either be version 1.0 or 1.1 depending on which is available in Amazon.

According to their site as well as the documentation that comes with the product, this specific model ONLY broadcasts at 2.4GHz. The Unifi Pro models, are both 2.4 and 5GHz capable, but that capability comes at an increased price. (still probably less than any other comparable product though....)

WiFi devices that meet IEEE 802.11ac and 802.11n standards get their higher bandwidth by operating in the 5 GHz band but this antenna is designed for the legacy "b" and "g" 2.4 GHz band. Although it may "work" somewhat at 5 GHz, it's likely to have a screwy radiation pattern and will not function at all like it does at 2.4 GHz. If you're interested in the higher bandwidth advantages of "ac" or "n" WiFi, look for antennas designed for 5 GHz WiFi. If you need support for legacy equipment as well, look for antennas designed for dual-band (5 and 2.4 GHz) operation or use two separate antennas.
