Are these antennas dual band? Obviously 5GHz and 2.4GHz are different wavelengths.

i dont know what dual band is...all i know is that this antenna didn't attach to my alfa card...and the adapters i ordered for it didn't work either ....also research wifi king (think its called ) and back track 5...i"m still dealing with my bad wifi situation...

Yes...it is a "Dual Band'' antenna and works well on both frequency ranges//Good luck with yours!

A 2.4ghz radio is not like the old 60 channels RC. Yes, you can fly 5 at the same time because each radio "binds" to each receiver inside the helicopter. No two frequencies in the 2.4Ghz frequency are the same when it comes to binding.

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.

It did with my AC68U. I was able to get a usable signal outside my house whereas before these as could not.You'll see improvement with 2.4Ghz but not so much with 5Ghz.

They are just different frequency sets. You need to purchase the set that matches your wireless receiver.

They are universal antennas. At first I had them on a WiFi repeater and now I have them on my home router. If they use the same connection then the size won't matter.

Wi-fi can operate over two different frequencies, 2.4 gigaHertz (gHz) and 5 gigaHertz. Hardware that supports only Wi-fi G and/or Wi-Fi B operate at 2.4 gHz. Wi-fi A uses 5 GHz. The newer Wi-fi N standard can use either or both frequencies, but when using the 5 GHz frequency the volume of data that can be transmitted is about 3 times as great. For example, the capacity of a 2.4 Ghz network may not be great enough to allow streaming hi-def video at full 1080p. FYI, most newer smartphones, tablets and notebooks support both frequencies.

Exactly what it says..... You can connect on the 2.4ghz or the 5ghz wireless n band. Wireless n works on either band just like wireless ac. Also it is important to note 2.4 is better at long range 5 is better for small distances and gives faster speeds... But struggles to reach longer distances.

Yes it should be! Once you have a wifi signal on either 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency it will pick up your signal clear as ever! Router brands make little difference!

There is no such thing as a triband adapter. The router has 2 5Ghz radios and one 2.4Ghz radio. You want a dual band ac or n adapter (5Ghz and 2.4Ghz). The reason it is advertised as triband is because, it balances the load on the 5Ghz band between the two 5Ghz radios. If you have a mix of 5Ghz n and ac devices, the router will separate them on to different radios so the "n" devices don't slow down the "ac" devices, for all this to happen make sure "Smart Connect" is enabled. If smart connect is disabled you can still do the same thing manually.

Look at the paperwork on each device and find the frequency/channel chart. If they match exactly you may use them together,assuming that the transmitting carrier frequencies match. Ie: 5ghz or 500mhz - these are only examples.

I can't tell on 2.4GHz because I use mainly on 5GHz. However, it has pretty good reception even the signal "leaks" to upstairs where it's served with another AP

Hi William, if you are using this for a 2.4ghz - 5ghz antenna, it will not work unless your antenna has a gain of at least 6db for 2.4gh and 12db for 5ghz. Look up attenuation (dbloss) on 5meter cable at 2.4ghz, this cable will LOSE 5.8db of signal, you will need an Antenna that gives more than 5db of gain to negate the use of this cable -- hope this helps...

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.

I would not recommend it. I tried to set them up on straight line 1200 ft link with moderate trees and got no signal. The 2.4 ghz would be a better choice. The 5ghz needs clear LOS. I had to raise them above the trees and then they worked fine.

Kinda, it has the typical ASUS driver software which allows for independent setting for the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. You can give each band a separate SSID and password. That will allow you to connect to just the 5Ghz band with your devices. After you have separate SSIDs you can also disable the 2.4Ghz SSID broadcast so it won't even show up as an option on most of your devices. However, there's no way to actually disable the 2.4Ghz band broadcast. Remember, even when the 2.4Ghz band is "hidden" you (or others) can still find it and connect to it so make sure it's password protected!
