My oneplus 6t has issue in picking up the 5ghz signal from my router. It always connects to the 2.4ghz band when i go farther from the router but never switch back to 5ghz band. To put it simply, when i go to balcony, the 5ghz signal is very weak and onplus 6t is automatically switching to the 2.4ghz band but when i come back into the living room (where the router is), my 6t doesn't switch back to 5ghz. Hence slow speed and its kinda annoying. Is there any possibility to force my 6t connect only on 5ghz band.
note : my router has the option of disabling the 2.4ghz band but i cant do that because few of the devices are old and only have 2.4ghz band.
On the router you could set up one access point SSID using onky the 2.4 frequency and a separate SSID using only 5 GHz. Connect older devices to the first one and your 6T to the second one. My ASUS router supports this kid of thing; Netgear router I had before would do this also.
I'm not aware of a way on the phone to only use one frequency.

can you tell me please what frequency of wifi n draft does the hd2 support ,as iam going to buy a new n router soon
any one , please
not entirely sure here but i think most wifi n capable routers will have options for both.
Hi hoss_n2
The HD2 only supports the 2.4Ghz band or 802.11b/g (54Mbps max)
802.11N capable Wifi routers will come in two flavors, ones that use the 2.4Ghz band only and ones that use both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.
The devices that use both band are far superior to the single band 2.4Ghz especially when talking 802.11N
The main reason for this is "N" capability for channel bonding
So really any wifi router should support the HD2

first thanks for your reply ,second can the dual band router be adjusted for only 5ghz ,and which frequency is better
I'm pretty sure (95%) that there is a reg tweak to enable 802.11n (it's disabled originally cause it drains battery very fast).
Hi,
I have a UK Desire Z. The spec says the phone is capable of connecting to b/g/n wifi standards. However I am having trouble seeing my N network on the wireless list. Has anyone sucessfully connected thier phone to an N network?
Are you trying to connect to a 2.4hgz network or a 5ghz one?
It should work on the 2,4 but not on the 5 ghz
I have dual-band router and Desire Z does see/connect to 2.4GHz N network. It does not see 5GHz network. But my 5GHz is running in two channel 40MHz mode, didn't have time to check if switching to single channel would allow Z to connect.
Mine connects fine to my home Wi-Fi network, which is 'N' standard. Not sure what speed it is connecting at, or whether it's dropping back to B/G though.
Do you have MAC address security blocking set on your router, and if so have you told it about the phone's MAC address?

This verifies that answer, changing to single channel on 5GHz will not make a difference.
The wifi radio on the DZ is a 2.4GHz radio.
in multiple places I cannot connect to 802.11n 5ghz dual band networks. I can connect to 2.4ghz networks though. tried at work and at home and both places I'm unable to connect. looks like it tried, then just gives up.
Try to configure different ssid for every frequency.

I just brought a D-link router it does not have any region Setting it only have 36,40,44,48 channels on 5Ghz.
but my xiaomi phones not detecting the 5ghz band in any way. i'v tried all of the channels not any of them working, but i can detect 5ghz band using any WiFi analyzer app.
I haven't used 5ghz before so I thought my router have some problem So i brought an Tp-Link Archer C50 it also don't have any region setting and it have 36,40,44,48,149,153,157,161 channels on 5Ghz but result is same.
Not any of xiaomi detecting any 5Ghz band but all of them working quite good on 2.4Ghz.
My phone is rooted so can i change manually my WiFi region or channels on Redmi note 4 mtk. Using latest stock Global Rom
I am really having problem connecting 5GHz wifi to my Oneplus 6T.
My router has 36,40,44 and 48 channels.
How can I connect to 5GHz wifi
