- XorNot 6y agoWhat's really baffling is how this is a problem if he just wants to use his laptop or something? Like 5ghz is everywhere these days.
- silly-silly 6y agoNot everyone has 5ghz laptops.
- XorNot 6y agoAnd not all IoT is 5ghz. The spectrum is free to use, so I'm incredibly unsympathetic to him.
- SilverRed 6y agoGoing to be easier to buy a 5ghz usb than fix someone elses flooding.
- imhoguy 6y agoOr sometimes even nicer with replacement of PCIe/M.2 WiFi card.
- Havoc 6y agoTrue. Replacing the wireless card with a modern wifi 6 card is trivial and not particularly expensive either though.
- xvector 6y ago5Ghz doesn’t work well in a lot of houses. Weird geometry, thick walls, etc.
- bartvk 6y agoI live in an old, three story brick house from the 1930. It's small, 100 m² (1075 sq.ft.). The 5 GHz from my Airport Express can barely reach the kitchen. My solution is to put additional APs in the house, but with low transmit power. I use 25 mW personally. But then again, the chances that the neighbor will agree to this, are slim to none.
