Usually newer phone has 2.4/5Ghz wifi/hotspot option(frequency bands 802.11n).
I can create a hotspot of 5Ghz frequency band like. But I cannot connect to 5Ghz frequency hotspot.
When I was using Android 6 I had the option to choose between 2.4/5Ghz wifi band.
But after the Android N update(Resurrection remix 5.8.4). The option went missing.
I'm just curious to know why this happened.
Because 5Ghz is much faster than 2.4Ghz.

Is there any way to switch WiFi between 2.4 and 5ghz?

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge running android 7.0
I'm trying to add some Sonoff devices to my works WiFi network, via the eWeLink app. The app only supports 2.4ghz but my phone has a preference for the 5ghz network. Both 2.4 and 5ghz are using the same SSID and because of other devices connected I can't rename one or temporarily turn off 5ghz...
Any way round this other than buying an old phone or tablet just for adding devices?

Bluetooth disconnect when wifi tethering is on and perform a call

Hi team,
I have wifi tehetering on and the bluetooth paired (car or handsfree). If I try to call or i receive It, the bluetooth and wifi tether disconnect and after the call, the networks go alive.
I have a Nokia 6 ta-1003. Any help?
Thanks in advance

I guess both radios, Wifi and BT, were operating in the same the 2.4GHz band and were overlapping with some LTE band. Try changing Hotspot band to 5Ghz and see if it helps. You cannot change BT band though.
I guess LTE bands 40,41 can clash with 2.4Ghz Wifi/BT

Thanks, changed wifi tethering to 5ghz works, but my car only support 2,4 ghz
My last phone (Samsung A5) works nice with 2,4ghz wifi tethering and BT. IS It only a Nokia 6 issue?

I'm not sure it's Nokia 6 specific issue. Probably your A5 did not support LTE bands which clash with Wifi/BT at 2.4 GHz.
You can also try disabling 4G/LTE and force 3G only on your Nokia and see if Wifi/BT disconnect during calls.

I have the same problem which started after the phone got updated to 8.1
With 8.0 it was working fine. I contacted Nokia support but they were far from technical and offered some trivial changes in the settings which didn't help. They were not even authorized to register it as a bug.
I'm afraid that unless the phone receives another software update, we're stuck with this.

Thanks a los for your reply.
Do hoy think that we could fix It changing LTE band channel?

Mediapad M3 Model Number BTV-W09 is not detecting dual band home wifi

Hi All,
This issue is really weird my huawei media pad M3 is connecting every other wifi but it cant detect my home wifi for some reason
It used to detect the 2.4G now it completely stopped doing that
My wifi is dual band supporting 2.4G and 5G
My tablet only has wifi so no way to upgrade without connecting to wifi.
Model number BTV-W09
Build number:BTV-W09C128B356
EMUI VERSION :5.0.3
aNDROID VERSION :7.0
Any help will be really appreciated
Thanks

Try different SSIDs for 2.4GHz and 5GHz. If this isn´t possible then temporary deactivate the 5GHz WiFi so that there is only one (identical) SSID active.

Change channel of your WiFi radio. Please Google how if you don't understand. I had to change channel of my 5ghz at home in order for this tablet to recognize 5ghz.

5G WiFi Band not working after the Pie upgrade !

So after upgrading my Galaxy S8 to Pie from Oreo I have noticed that when I am searching for my 5G WiFi network it is not showing up. In android oreo it used to work fine as the S8 supports the 5G WiFi band. My laptop & other devices can use the 5G band except my S8 with android pie.
Is there anyone else facing the problem or it's only me ?

if the 5ghz network sees it from the phone but does not connect, delete your 5ghz network and then enter the password
