ok so I purchased this router a bit ago as my old linksys died (wrt-54g)
so I simply put the router in and configured it up.
for 2.4 and 5ghz I used the same SSID
Created a guest virtual and called it the SSID name of the other then added _Guest
life has been working fine. My Galaxy Note 3 connects fine plus 1 iPhone 5s, 1 iPad, 3 iPods...
I just got an HP TouchSmart IQ-507 from a guy at work and it has a N card in it. I set it up with Windows 8.1 and love it but I noticed the speed is 56mb.
I have since named each SSID with a _2.4ghz or _5ghz.
When I go to the network card properties is where it shows this.
so two questions.
1. Should I use the same SSID for both 2.4ghz and 5ghz or keep the naming separate?
2. Should I see a faster connection rating that 56mb?
The HP is in the dining room where the router is in the basement. The router is mounted to the floor boards literally 8 feet away and 4 feet in height (if you want to know the relationship)
Trying to figure out the most optimum network speed connection or do i just leave it and let be as it works?
