[Q] 5 Ghz WiFi impossible on Linksys wrt610n

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 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.

Can't see or connect to Open or WEP networks

I have a very interesting problem. For awhile now I have had to use my laptop's wifi to as an ad-hoc network so that I can have wifi and it works great. However, when I went home to my Dad's house, who doesn't have wifi, I dug out an old wifi adapter to make an ad-hoc network there. The problem is I can only make it open or WEP secured and apparently my phone can't see those networks. I tried to connect to the networks using another laptop and that worked fine.
So is there some issue with connecting to WEP and Open networks? I would love a fix for this.

Unable to connect to 5Ghz WiFi?

I just got my M8 and its unable to see any 5Ghz network, even when set to scan for 5Ghz only. 2.4Ghz networks are seen and connect fine. Just wondering if anyone else has this issue,and if they found a fix that doesn't involve sending the phone to HTC.
Edit: My router was being stupid. Only 5Ghz AP in the area, didn't think to check other devices if they were connected to the 5Ghz AP or the 2.4Ghz one.

Any updates on that? Same story here, Xaomi Mi mini router and M8. I can see only 2.4GHz network.

how can i hotspot as 2.4 ghz from 5 ghz ?

I'm thinking of using my phone as a wifi repeater to use my pc. The wifi I get from the modem is 5ghz. When I make a hotspot from the phone, the wifi adapter connected to my pc does not see 5 ghz networks. Can I share this internet as 2.4 ghz from the phone?
I just realized that you can't change to 5Ghz unless you share it from your own mobile data. But i been trying something but doesn't really sure that it's working or not, the first things is you have to set your wifi from mobile data as 5Ghz then you can connect your n8p from your 5ghz router, here as my attachement in poco F4 says that my note 8 pro broadcasting 5ghz
