    Wireless AC (R7000)...confused on my home network

    Alright so I have 2xR7000 and have 600Mbps 2.4G and 1300Mbps AC set up on 5G My understanding is to get 1300Mbps it uses 600Mbps 2.4G and 866Mbps 5G to make the 1300Mbps correct? Why do I only get 866Mbps on my S8 and laptop (Intel dual band 8260AC). Need 4 band? How do I get AC to work...
