Can its wifi connect to 5 Ghz wifi routers?

This tablet will connect to a 5 Ghz router pushing a 2.4 Ghz signal, the wireless card in it is only 802.11 b/g/n.

PC Processor speed will not affect your router, or it's ability to connect. As for using the 5 ghz band... yes you will need an adapter unless your PC wifi card supports 5ghz. Only the most recent laptops on the market have 5ghz capability.

The 5 Ghz frequency is used as the transmitter signal between the bridge points. Assuming you are connecting the router to the bridge with a Cat 5 or 6 cable you will not have a problem.

Depends on your wifi. Wifis run in B, G or N bands. 5.8 is in the N band, so as long as you have a wifi in the B or G bands, these should work without interferance. If you also are using cordless phones on your wifi phones, you need to check what band they are running on. Wifi G is 2.4 GHZ, not sure what B is, since it is pretty old. I have wifi G and cordless phones that run at 6.0 GHZ and these run without anything interfering with each other.

this depends on how you have it set up you can go to config on your adapter and choose ho to connect i have an ac router so i connect to the 5ghz network if your router has dual ssid one for 2.4 and one for 5 ghz connect to the 5 i recommend leaving set to auto which works great for me in case you happen to go somewher where only 2.4 is avialabe. hope this answers your question.

Yes, but it lacks 5Ghz band, so don't expect any jump in speed. Single band only, or wide channels if your router allows it. (Many don't in crowded areas.)

Not sure, the wifi was so bad that I gave up trying to make it work. I had it 5 feet from my router. :-(

The previous answer was perfect. I would only add that, if the available wireless connection uses the 2.4GHz band, the 5GHz band provided by the Belkin device probably would improve the connection quality.

John, not sure if it works well at 5ghz I can tell you that I noticed a reduced speed when using it to extend the range of my dlink router.

Not exactly, the adapter can sense WiFi 2.8GHz and 5GHz signals down to -75DBm. If the WiFi station is open, that is not encrypted you may pair or connect with it. If the station is encrypted you will need the key from the site before you can link up with it. McDonald's, Starbucks and many other resturants and hotels have open sites.

I could not set up a 5ghz network with the latest airport utility for windows, it only has options for 2.4ghz. Called Apple support an they confirmed that you cannot setup a 5ghz network with version 5.x of the Airport utility and version 6.x is not available for windows.

I believe so but only for each WLAN. We don't use it this way but you could have one SSID for 5.0 GHz and another SSID for 2.4 GHz.

yes it has wi-fi. i dont know about the router. contact the maufacter of the router ,see if it would work. i dont see why it wouldnt because routers connects up to multiple devices,at one time.

Yes. I ran a router from this device so I could have a 5.0 Ghz connection for my apple devices. I had no issues. Not sure if you can turn the wifi off.

You can connect this to any router or wifi hot spot. I have 2 of these and use them to get N access on the 5ghz range on my dual band router at home. They are small and easy to use.

no, it's compatible with 2.4GHz. But in usual, the router has 5GHz and also 2.4GHz.

No.It can work completely wirelessly. You might want to try plugging it in a couple of different outlets (to test the best distance from your router) to find the maximum speed.
