Home Network Question
In the house I have fibre optic internet at 100 megs per second. I also have a netgear simultaneous dualband router broadcasting at 5mhz and 2.4mhz at the same time.. About 6 devices were connected to the 5mhz band which just involved choosing it from the list of available networks, It shows up the 2.4 option as well as the 5.
So, got the laptop home and connected straight away to the 5mhz. Several days later I powered it up the laptop, no connection on the 5. Connected to the 2.4 no problem so still have very fast wireless internet on it.
But, why does it throw me off the 5 now?. My wife bought a new iPhone and ipad in between times and connected them to it, but now they are not.
So, could it be that their are a maximum amount of connections you can make to a 5mhz frequency. Did the router allocate slots for them which are still there even if they are disconnected now.
I am at a loss? Perhaps the wifi card in the laptop went sour on it but connects perfectly to the 2.4. Have made no changes to the laptops settings as far as I can see.
Scant info on this googling it so any ideas, suggestions would be appreciated.
