How to Change From 2.4ghz to 5ghz Wireless Network Adapter in Windows 10/8/7 [Tutorial]

How to Change From 2.4ghz to 5ghz Wireless Network Adapter in Windows 10/8/7 [Tutorial]

Wireless adapters can run in 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, which also refers to as bands in Windows. If you’re experiencing problems with your wireless connection, you could try and specify the preferred band.

Wi-Fi can run on two different bands of radio frequency: 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz.

With Microsoft’s recent firmware update for the Surface Pro 3, among the new bits and pieces was a new Marvell Wifi driver that lets you switch between 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands on the fly. For those of us using a dual-band router, the updated driver should help resolve any related issues.

Channels are a series of sub-bands that operate within the 2.4- or 5-GHz bands. The 2.4-GHz band worked really well when the number of devices operating on the band were few and far between, but with today’s connected world, this band has become crowded, degrading network performance.

The 5-GHz band is much less crowded, resulting in less interference and higher data throughput speeds. If all your devices support it, you can force your router to use only the 5-GHz band. To check your devices for 5-GHz band support, you can check your manual. Or you can change the setting via the steps below on your router and check for devices that no longer work. If all of them work after your router reboots, all of your devices are compatible. The higher frequency band has a smaller range, however, so you’ll want to be sure all your devices will be in range of the router, or you can invest in an extender.

In an environment with other radiating devices nearby (such as microwave ovens, cordless telephones, access points, or client devices), in order to reduce interference, you may prefer the 5GHz band over the 2.4GHz band, or the reverse.

This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops,and tablets running the Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 operating systems.Works for all major computer manufactures (Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Samsung).

P&O Cruises has just added two HUGE ships to their fleet – the biggest yet for Aussie P&O. The new ships offer Australia a new cruise experience for 2021/2022.

About this video:

Before the term COVID-19 was even coined, P&O Australia had plans to revitalise their fleet. Princess Cruises’ 2001 built Grand Class vessel Golden Princess was set to be transferred to P&O Australia with the announcement made all the way back in 2017.

The following year, P&O Australia revealed that it would welcome another Grand Class vessel into its stable, with the 2002 built Star Princess set to sail for the Aussie brand from 2021 as Pacific Encounter.

With two “new” ships due to arrive over the coming years, P&O Australia was free to reorganise its ageing fleet, and Pacific Eden and Pacific Jewel were both retired in 2019.

However the pandemic created a major roadblock for P&O Australia’s plans, with the cruise industry in a state of chaos when both Pacific Adventure and Pacific Encounter were set to join the fleet.

Despite this, P&O have now accepted both ships – with them undertaking extensive refurbishments in Singapore in anticipation for their new careers.

Pacific Encounter – the former Star Princess – has just emerged from her transformation; sporting a huge 20m long (that’s 65ft for those who don’t do metric) P&O brand mark on the funnel – the largest branding ever seen on a P&O ship in over 180 years of history.

Internally, the 18 deck ships will emerge transformed, with the Australian brand’s signature restaurants and lounges, including the Waterfront and Blue Room as well as the Pantry – P&O’s take on a casual eatery that replaces the traditional buffet seen on many cruise ships.

While by no means new ships, Pacific Adventure and Pacific Encounter are a decade newer than those they replace, and a step up in terms of scale and amenities. Carrying over 2,600 passengers they are more than 30,000 tons bigger than P&O Australia’s previously largest ships; Pacific Jewel and Pacific Dawn.

Each will offer an adults only outdoor deck, multiple pools, a full-scale spa centre and P&O’s Edge experience which is known for its more extreme offerings of rope swings, rock climbing and the Titanic-style “bow” experience if you feel like being the “king of the world”.

Their addition makes Pacific Explorer the baby of the fleet, but as the three ships all share a common Princess heritage, they will feel familiar and easy to navigate for both returning former-princess travellers and new P&O cruisers.

Pacific Explorer is set to roam between Australian and New Zealand ports when cruising resumes, Encounter will initially focus on cruising from Brisbane while Adventure will call Sydney home.
