my laptop wireless adapter is b not N, so i currently can't use my dual band 5ghz from N750 if i buy this adaptor can my laptop connect to 5ghz ?

That are varying factors involved but since this adds an entirely separate Network adapter to your computer it should then be able to connect to 5 Ghz. I am quite satisfied with mine but I connected it to a PC that did not have a wireless adapter, only an ethernet adapter. So this is the only wireless adapter on the computer. I hope this helps.

Sorry Josh, I can't help you. My Netgear N900 is broken a long time and I don't understand by computer....

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.

Disable the built in adapter in your network settings and everything should work fine. I've used mine on half a dozen computers with built in wifi.

Make sure the cable is connected as well that the actual wifi card is not loose. The board is only a switch not the actual wireless network adapter. These sometimes get loose when pulling the laptop apart. There is also two wires that connect to the antennas.

Yes, this pc has an integrated 802.11n adapter that is compatible with 5GHz network Frequency.

It can interfere with other devices on the 2.4 ghz range. Make sure your wireless router is not in the same room as the device as it'll certainly cause issues. Dual-band routers that utilize the 5.0 ghz range won't have the same issue.

go to 'Run' prompt, type:"netsh wlan show drivers" (without quotes).Then post here what the "Driver" line in the response is. Or, just tell me what Wireless Adapter you have now. Without that, or, more of my time searching for the adapter, I cannot answer.OK, Guillermo's link shows the Adapter and because of that, yes. The 7260 will install. You will need to modify the antenna, as is shown on the link. It is a Dual Band Adapter, Two antenna. Good. Guillermo's Link: http://www.jdhodges.com/blog/asus-q200e-ssd-upgrade-swap-hdd/

I have a dual-band router... the Asus "Dark Knight" router (a VERY nice router). It has both 5.0 and 2.4 bands on "n" wireless. My BD device only sees the 2.4 band. In fact, I only have a couple of devices which can see my "5.0" channel. In those cases, I always connect them to the 5.0 band, because it's so seldom used otherwise.

I have a c5500 which requires the wireless lan adapter. All I seem to be able to find is the Samsung item. I searched the pdf manual and didn't see any indication of using another wireless adapter. Any feedback?

Its not really designed to be used for a WiFi adapter. Most WiFi devices are designed to use 50ohm antennas and cables. Using a 75 ohm antenna, if you could find the right adapters, would be inefficient and defeat the purpose of installing the antenna. You're better off finding an antenna specfically for WiFi in the 2.4GHz band (assuming a 2.4GHz adapter).

Yes this is true. But it is not from Lenovo. It is the Wi-fi device itself. I have owned many kinds of laptops with the 7260 N Wi-Fi adapter and no matter what you do, You'll always have issues with it depending on your situation. My best advice is to either return the laptop or upgrade that adapter to a 7260ac wifi.

Wireless networks up to 2.4 Ghz... 802.11 b,g,n ok. Not compatible with 5Ghz networks.

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.

No Sorry, Just be careful when you try to buy adapter too, because those tend not to work either. Good Luck, my next pruchase will be wireless

I use this on a laptop with a dual band Asus router. I have the same result as you, I see the 2.4GHz but not the 5GHZ. Seems rediculous that Asus reciever can not see Asus dual band router. On other hand it locks on to the 2.4GHz signal very well and so I am happy enough. Guess if can not detect 5Ghz from Asus router than this is not such a great product.

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.

Yeah... ish. I have it in my router right now and it works great in the 2.4ghz band. Im working on getting the 5ghz band up and running but I seem to be running into country code problems or it might be possible that this card doesn't support AP mode in 5Ghz mode but Im hoping for the former :) kernel 3.13. EDIT. Talked to a intel kernel dev. 5ghz is disabled for regulatory reasons.
