I just got T-mobile Home internet few weeks ago,, I had no idea what the differences were between the 2.4 and 5 GHz,, The initial set up was on the 2.4 and I had terrible streaming experience on my Roku smart TV., Once I switched to 5 GHz my Streaming has been flawless and everything else is a lot quicker. I live in a 1600 SF house. great Video.
Higher frequency does not equal faster wifi. Your wifi speed depends on the standard that is used by both the router and your device, how many streams are supported by each, the quality of the chipset and drivers for both, and whether bonded streams are supported by both. Optimum (formerly Suddenlink) will give you a triple-play gateway that has both 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios but only supports 802.11n. The radio doesn't matter at that point unless you are getting interference from your neighbors or other wireless devices in your home.
@waynedavis1099 I don't have one yet, but this is a great topic for a video. I will make a note to create a video about bandwidth. Thanks for the idea!
Hey @waynedavis1099, do you mind if I feature this comment on a future video I make about bandwidth and common misconceptions when it comes to bandwidth?
No not at all,can’t wait to see and here your interpretation of this subject,that really isn’t explained,because people who Understand,expect,others to have some sort of grasp of this topic and miss important terms that people need to learn that’s makes for easier Comprehensive.Thanks.
When it comes to the channel size, I usually go with the default sizes. I have never had to play around with this configuration. I would suggest using what the initial settings were for your channel size. I hope this helps!
If you use an Ethernet cable to connect to the internet, none of these frequencies matter (e.g. 2.5 or 5 GHz). That’s because radio frequencies are not being used to send data between your devices. The data is being sent through wires using pulses of electricity. I hope this helps clear things up!
Thanks for explaining this but I’m still confused 😂😂😂 I have a Wyze cam that I’m having trouble setting up, it keeps going off like, msg connection unstable
@ratimaat9397 is this a wireless camera? If so, you will want to make sure the camera is close enough to your router that it's receiving a strong WiFi signal. If your camera is far away from your router, it might have connections issues due to a poor WiFi signal.
@@network-from-home thank you for responding so quickly., after checking my system I don’t think I have a router that’s probably what’s happening, thanks again, I really appreciate your very detailed, easy to understand video
Finally I found someone who teaches in a way I understand and doesn't speed talk thru the process.Thanks so much.
@patlambert6787 no problem! I'm glad you found it useful.

@malongfan840 that's great news, I'm glad you are having a better WiFi experience in your home!
Absolutely loved your approach made it easy to understand and follow. Thanks so much and good luck with the channel.✊🏾💪🏽😀
Thank you very much! And thanks for checking out the video

Any chance of you explaining band width,you clearly know this stuff and make this subject easier than most do.I’m waiting with baited breath.

@@waynedavis1099 thank you. I will see what I can put together!
Very clear,thanks.
@waynedavis1099 no problem. Thank you for checking out the video!
Nice, thanks.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
If I have 2.4 and 5ghz is it ok to set them both to 20mhz? Or would it be best for 2.4 to be 40mhz and 5ghz to be 20mhz?
When it comes to the channel size, I usually go with the default sizes. I have never had to play around with this configuration. I would suggest using what the initial settings were for your channel size. I hope this helps!
As for the cable connection mode, does it not depend on 2.4 & 5 frequencies?
If you use an Ethernet cable to connect to the internet, none of these frequencies matter (e.g. 2.5 or 5 GHz). That’s because radio frequencies are not being used to send data between your devices. The data is being sent through wires using pulses of electricity. I hope this helps clear things up!
I get it thanks @@network-from-home
No problem!
If only the 2.4 Ghz actually functioned as advertised. We need a better, more efficient, and stable radio frequency.
That would be great!

Set the video speed 1.25x and thank me later 😂 (nice explanation though) 👍
Thank you for the feedback. I have been working on my pacing in my recent videos so hopefully you find them more useful. Thanks for watching!
What happens if I want to get a door bell that only to 2.4GHz WiFi and does not support 5GHz WiFi? It won't function???
Your doorbell will still work, it will just utilize the 2.4G WiFi band of your router
@@network-from-home Thank you for your useful answer!
You’re welcome!
