pxb368 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Hello Windows Gurus,I'm starting to design a 5GHz Wireless Networks that will work together with an 2.4Ghz during the tests and transition phase. In order to keep the same configuration into the clients, we are choosing the same SSID, so we do not have to go one be one and change the machine configuration. My question is, If there are two WLAN, one with 2.4Ghz and another with 5Ghz with the same SSID, how Windows will choose to which frequency to connect?! To the 2.4Ghz (the default frequency for most APs) or will it try to connect to the 5Ghz (Faster and Less Interference)?!I also checked and the computers does have Wireless card that works with 5Ghz frequency.Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
