2.4MHz is not that bad I'm getting 11Mbits over my 2.4MHz N network which for a phone is pretty awesone I'd say. (measured with speedtest.net)

damn thats fast yea sadly i cant change my Bands to 2.4GHz becuase my router is dual band and u cant have 2 of the same bands(eg Wireless G and N on 2.4Ghz Band)

My router is dualband and on 2.4 I have it set to N+G, on 5GHz have it on N only.

Wireless N

Does anyone know why the wireless N channel of my dual band router doesn't show up on my A500?

+1..
Can't even see my N network either.. My wife's Xoom has a setting under advanced/wireless to change your setting, but my Acer doesn't.
It might be because the A500 doesn't recognize 5Ghz N networks, only 2.4Ghz.

If it's a 5Ghz that could be the problem, but maybe it's just the channels (12 or 13) that doesn't play nice and there's a fix posted already.
Well, mine is a 5Ghz N network.. so that may be the problem. Oh well.
a500 is 2.4 only not dual band like the zoom
Another strange thing.. Speed tests with the a500 are half as fast as my dinc using my wifi

I just did a post about the wifi, since IMO, this is the feature the A500 is weak on.
No adhoc
No 5gz
Weak signal that is unstable in weaker wifi areas
The signal seems toggle in weak areas from one bar, two and zero, disconnects and then reconnects. Rinse and repeat.
My gTablet is a good device for wifi comparisons, but makes the A500 seem weak.

A little help about wifi

i am using Netgear N wireless router at 150mbps
but my phone shows link speed of 65mbps
any way to force the device to connect at 802.11N
Are any other devices connected to the router? If there is and there not N speed the router will only work at that speed unless it is dual band.
No only my phone is connected
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA App
any one? please
The Galaxy S uses a very restricted form of the 802.11N. In fact, it limits it to the 2.4GHz band and only a single 20MHz spatial stream.
Therefore, even on a router that supports N, 65Mbps is the best you are going to be able to get.
Ok i understand why my wifi is so bad too. Thanks

5ghz wifi

I'm sure this has been asked but I can't find it. I know the stock ROM support 5ghz but what other good ROMs have it? I can't use 2.4ghz in my apartment because it is too crowded.
Just checked in SuperGalaxy wifi settings, it does have options for auto, 5GHz, and 2.5GHz. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36009763
Don't have dual band router, so never have checked for this b before in the other current roms I have used.

Nope that ROM has the setting but it just keeps kicking back to AUTO and never lists the 5Ghz AP.
i believe synthetic's rom has this feature

I tested it but same as the others setting will not stick on 5Ghz just kicks back to 2.4 without ever showing any AP
Well that was my only idea. Sorry.

try some things from this post--->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=851687&highlight=5ghz+wifi.or the code hasn't been written into the latest kernals for 5GHZ as is stated in this post-->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402532&highlight=5ghz+wifi
Yeah I went back to one of the stock mod ROMs and it can see the 5Ghz now but still can't connect to it.
cnote's JB 10.1 ROMs at least have an option to control 5 GHz wifi. Not sure if it actually does anything.
I have checked this and no the setting is not connected to anything. HTC broke the 5ghz with the very first update to this phone. To get it to work I would need to go back to the first release stock software. Unless some dev can pull the old drivers and put it into a ROM I'm sol

S4 Wifi Link speed is it 65Mbps or 150+? Somone check plz!

Given all other Samsung Phones are stuck @ 65, I wonder if the S4 Link speed is 150 for Wireless N Or still stuck @ 65?
Thanks
I only get 150mbps if I connect to the 5ghz frequency on my router.

5 ghz preferred WiFi on Nexus 4

Hi,
I use my Nexus 4 quite a bit at home and at school. My school has a very slow over populated 2.4ghz, the 5ghz band though is very quick. I've noticed the Nexus 4 jumps on the 2.4 automatically, to get on the 5ghz I have to turn on 5ghz only. However when I get back home, my wireless router only runs at 2.4, so I have to turn Wi-Fi back to auto. This gets annoying having to do this 5 days a week. My question is simple, is there a way to set 5ghz as the preferred band for Wi-Fi when both are present? I should mention my phone is fully rooted.
any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Can you forget the 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi network? That way it won't connect to it. Some ROMS have where you can prioritize the networks too so if both are in range and you have connected to both it will prefer whichever one you set at higher priority. If you don't have a ROM like that just install an app that can do this for you. Here is one:

Unfortunately the 2.4 and the 5ghz networks have the same name, I don't see a way to distinguish the two just with the stock OS.
Try go on just 2.4 then forget the one it connects to while on 2.4 only.

When a router has 2.4 and 5 GHz on one SSID, it doesn't appear as 2 separate access points, just one. Maybe you could make some sort of tasker profile that forces the phone to 5 GHz while your at school, and 2.4 anywhere else if that's possible.
Good point, I forgot about that. I named mine differently. Yeah try tasker, if you can figure it out.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I don't think switching between 2.4/5 GHz is currently possible in tasker.
