hi
i'm using 5x for few months now and i can't find any 5ghz network on settings (wifi work fine on 2.4ghz ).
i try different stock factory images , different kernel ,different rom still not working.
it's interesting because can create 5ghz wifi hotspot at tethering & portable hotspot but can't find any 5ghz wifi networks!
any idea?
could be your router needs your wifi 5g to be turned on or named separate to 2g or dropped down to a compatible level - we are virgin media at home and both 2.4ghz and 5ghz have same name so named one 2g and one 5g then could select it...
Hey dude I have the same exact issue, other devices in my house can find 5Ghz networks, but nexus 5x can't, if you find a solution, please let me know, my only guess is that maybe changing country on router will make it compatible, will test tonight.
Also my networks have different names... TP-Link Archer c7 router

just found a 5Ghz network on channel 52, if you have such channel in your router, please try it and let me know.
we are channel 36 it finds 5 ghz fine
802.11a/n/ac mixed
channel width 20/40mhz

i'm using TP-Link Archer MR200 and it's using sparate names for 2.4ghz and 5ghz. both wifi names shows up on another devices but in 5x i just can see the 2.4ghz one.
thanks

it's possible about channel i guess, only available channels on my router is 36,40,42 and 48.
very annoying issue because every single devices support 5ghz i've been test work fine with my router on any channel
anyway thanks bro

I have the same exact channels, I guess is a matter of changing router firmware, right now I now I'm using an european firmware, maybe try USA or Canadian.
I'm screwed as I also now it is not possible to downgrade or change my firmware haha

Hello,
I cannot connect to my AP on 5 Ghz
It sees it, it asks for password, but then disconnect and reconnect endlessly
Any idea why
Cheers.
One X does not support 5GHz wifi. I see only 2.4GHz in official spec
Oups, I thought it could as i can see it
Switch your router to 2.4, and it will work
I thought it was 2.4ghz only cos of the specification too but i can connect to my 5ghz frequency on my Netgear WNDR3700.
I can see and connect to my Netgear 5Ghz WNDR4500 no problem at all.
You guys can tell me what parameters do you use for your 5ghz ?
Thanks.
My router is fairly new, just bought it 2 months ago. I didnt change any of the settings, just plug & play. Even didnt change the router password.
The problem is with Linksys router's wireless .
even in my house we used to have a Linksys router , kept on disconnected when over 3 devices are connected to it , keeps on disconnected every 2-3 minutes really.
changed the router , and everything is smooth now

WIFI Channel 44
WPA2 AES encryption
Up to 300 Mbps speed setting
5Ghz a/n network types.
That's all the settings that i've configured, although it works out of the box with stock netgear settings too.......

I have seen some places (specs) where is doesn't show the 5GHz, but the phone supports it.
Not able to connect with 5Ghz WiFi AP

I have tried to double check this spec on the HTC offical website and it does indicate this phone supports WiFi 5Ghz, as it is with Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n
htc.com/us/products/htconex-att#tech-specs
however, i have tried to link with a DLink router, DIR-857, and it sees the 2.4Ghz SSID and could connect without any problem, however, not able to see 5Ghz SSID though, i have also tried to set no security and with different channels but seems not have any lucky to this.
i am wondering is there any particular setting to the phone or router double checked with customer service but seem not really help, only ask me to change and try with another AP or router.....
I'm connected to my 802.11a AP with no problems at all. Ditto for 802.11g. I don't have 802.11n here so no idea if that affects it or not.
I didn't need to do anything special on the phone. The AP is a Cisco AP1242AG and it has the usual configuration with WPA2-PSK.

same as that, i didnt have to configure the phone at all. i just scanned, found the network and connected using WPS push button. Im on 802.11n as well
Hi all
My N7100 doesn't want to work with 5GHz WiFi at all. There is no option like that.
Event WiFi analyzer cannot switch to 5GHz and works only with 2.4GHz.
This happens regardless of any ROM or kernel I tried. AOSP, stock, CM10, CM10.1, combined...
I thing it's a kind of limitation in software. But I tried many ROMs and kernels. Do we have any radios/modems to flash separately?
Thanks
Wi Fi 5GHz on AP
I think there should be a 5GHz WiFi output from your AP also to connect with your 5GHz WiFi, correct me if am wrong.
I'm not talking about connecting to 5GHz.
The scan doesn't work...
WiFi analyzer allows to scan 2.4 or 5 GHz ranges. You can swap between two, but with my Note 2 I cannot change band, it always locked at 2.4GHz.
I'd be happy if anyone verified with WiFi analyzer is he can scan 5GHz band.
i have cisco e4200 set with different ssid for 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz. my ipad mini can detect and connect to 5 ghz one but my laptop (asus a55vm) and gnote2 cannot even detect it. updated the router's fw but no dime. so, i was wondering if the my laptop and note2 really support 802.11n at all?!?
no solution or no one even bother to connect to 5 ghz?
No 5GHz
I have the same problem I cannot see the 5GHz Network from my note 2 but I have no problem from my laptop and other clients.
Searching the web I found that the Mac Book Pro has the same problem with some 5 ghz Networks and they require the router to be on a specific channel:
channel 48.
Could this be the same problem with the Samsung Note 2?
Could it be that the radio only accept certain channels on the 5 gigahertz Network ?
I'm not at home but next week, when I go back, I will try to set the router to a more central channel like the 48.

I can see both on mine with wifi analyzer but there is no option to specify bands. apparently Samsung took that out.

In my case I can chose which bands to scan with WiFi Analyzer but then it only shows 2.4GHz networks.
Please, please, please...
Anyone? any help??

You may just be missing the button (which helpfully disappears when you're not messing with the UI). Upper left corner, there's the little Wifi Analyzer icon, just to the left of the text "Wifi Analyzer".
Poke the little area of blackness in between the Wifi Analyzer logo and the -30 dbm label on the chart.
That (normally-invisible) button toggles it between 2.4 and 5 GHz.
I can scan and use 5 GHz fine on my note 2 (my AP at home does 2.4 and 5 GHz at once, and the note 2 can connect to either one). The AP is on channel 149; haven't tried others.
@ tpeef
Thanks for jumping in. I appreciate your help!
I can see that button and I can toggle it. However I see all the 2.4GHz networks but none of the 5GHz.
In a Starbucks cafe I saw and connected to a network with "5" next to it but I didn't have time to check (with my laptop) if actually was 5GHz or just called "xxxxxxx 5".
Could it be that my 5GHz network channel is outside my device's radio's hardware/OS specs? If so, how can I modify the device's specs?

Try the lowest 5 GHz channel.

I had to change the 5GHz channel to the lowest available (36) before my phone would see the SSID.
To get Wifi Analyzer to scan the 5GHz channels tap the upper left hand corner below the icon and above the -30 dBm.

According to WiFi-Analyzer, the Note II can only see 5GHz channels 36-44.
Thanks Rusty Wedges !!!
Ran across your statement, scanned with WiFi Analyzer and seen my 5g channel was up in the 140's I think, and then went into my Asus router, changed it from auto channel to 30 (or whatever the lowest value is) then rebooted my router, and then my phone. Told my phone to forget the network, then re-entered my 5g network credentials and VOILA !
I knew it had to be something like this because when I initially set up my router I was connecting to 5g no problem. Then it just stopped. At least I also discovered I am the only person around with 5g too. Loving seeing link speeds at 150Mbps, thanks again !
I just upgraded my TWN H815 to v20c and now I don't see the 5GHz network on my Asus RT-AC68U router - only the 2.4GHz network. Has anyone else managed to access a 5GHz network on MM on the G4?

Make sure your Asus router is using only lower or higher channel numbers for 5Ghz. Many android devices seem to have problems with the DFS channels in the middle (50-144).
OK so I tried selecting the "Auto select channel including DFS channels" on the router and now the phone can see the 5Ghz network. I have no idea why though!

Do you know what channel you were on before vs. now? I encountered this problem a few years ago and solved it by hard coded the channel to 153 I believe. Currently I'm using an RT-AC66U with the same hard coded channel and it works fine with my H812 G4 running MM. If you go for hard coded, just make sure you don't pick a channel that is already occupied by another router (you can use the Site Survey feature to check what's in use.)
No sorry I didn't check (
How's it going guys? I have my Linksys router setup to 2,4 and 5ghz AC. For some reason my HTC 10 can not see the 5ghz signal along with other signals around my room. And my 2.4ghz speed is mad slow. Only getting 15mbps download when only 5' away from the router. I get 100mbps on 5ghz Ac on my PC.
Every other device I own sees and connects to the 5ghz Ac signal except my HTC 10.
Hi, I just tried to connect to my Netgear Dual Band router on the 5 GHz Band and it worked fine..possibly refresh the signals and then turn both the router and the phone on and off? But I assume you may have tried that already?

Have you tried WiFi Analyzer? I can see and connect to my Asus 5Ghz router with no issues...
Did you flash anything on the phone?
Definitely use WiFi Analyzer to configure your router/APs.
EDIT: Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69295617&postcount=223
I think it's a radio issue. I have to update it, so I think I'm just gonna end up doing an ruu
When you go into advanced wifi settings, what does it say under "wifi frequency band?" You may have it set to 2.4 gHz only. Check that before re-flashing anything.
It's set to auto. If I set it to 5GHZ only like 2 networks show. My PC sees like 10
I use htc 10 it does not see the network at a frequency of 5 GHz on channel 149
Hi!!
I just bought a new tab s4, and I can not connect it to the 5ghz wifi network. It connects, but says connected without internet. The 2.4GHz network connects perfectly.
PS. Sorry for my English.
Same issue.
My tablet is TIM branded.
Same issue, it connects on 2.4ghz but not on 5ghz...
Anyone?
HI peep's mine is connected to 5 GHz and it’s working flawlessly, it’s showing a connected speed of 866MBPS!
Quick questions, did you try a reboot router and Tab S4 once connected to 5GHZ ?
Also are you using separate WPA2 PSK key ?
As some routers can’t handle separate keys, keep the Wi-Fi key same for both channels i.e 2.4GHZ and 5GHZ!
Does it get ip address from the router/dhcp server you have?
I don't have access to a 5Ghz wifi right now. Next week I'll try the tablet and I'll try everything you said. If the new tablet has the same problem of course, I hope it goes well.

See below and bands i have Separate bands!

dual stack
Galaxy-Tab-S4
device info type 5 GHz
IP address: 000.000.0000 (DHCP)
MAC address: 77:EE:00:FFD:00
I have the same problem and I noticed that it came with the Anroid Pie update! 2,4G is working fine in my S4.
I have another tablet Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition and 5G Wifi is working flawlessly.
Might it be software issue in Android 9?
My basebandversion is T835XXU3BSF4, kernel 4.4.153-16124683 #2 Fri Jun 14 2019.
My Tab S4 was ,finally, updated to Android 9. 5GHz working fine. Both 5GHz and 2.4GHz working fine...
All good here...
I got one coming in the mail and will report back on my success but if you don't get internet trying setting your dns manually to Google's public one for testing. 8.8.8.8 Could also be related to the channel the router is using for 5ghz.
Malcolm
Okay, so I got a new tab s4, and I have the same problem. At the second floor of my house, I don't connect to the 5Ghz wifi. I have separated bands. I tried changing the channel... I don't know what else try.

5GHz WiFi has less range than 2.4GHz, maybe the signal strength is not enough at the second level. Use the lowest frequency band available, move the base unit to a place less obstructed etc. This does not sound like a device issue.

Yeah, I know, the device issue is that all my other phones, computers and devices are able to connect to the wifi. I enabled the smart wifi and it looks like it's going better, the tablet is able to get better download speed.
