@Adi Adiani I agree. Now, unless the higher frequency due to FCC regulations, has to be of a very low power, then range can be affected. Higher frequencies are more penetrating otherwise.
I used TP-LINK Archer AC3200 this router have tri_band: 1. 4.5Ghz 2. 5Ghz but my dual band smartphone just can detect 2 of it. (1)4.5Ghz with strength signal (2)just one low signal 5.GHz
I've come across thousands of vidos on "IT" stuff but shit...this is so detail and easy to follow and understand...if only we got teachers like this in college we'd all be having good jobs and getting good grades.
I mean you're not gonna get a better job if everybody else gets the same level of education be it good or bad. However, generally speaking people would be more educated.
you forgot to say that the same frequency is used by the microwave to heat the food, that is, heating people, or rather, their frying is good and cool, let these geniuses be more. of course, the frequency in the 5g network will be larger
Came across your channel today. Been watching all your videos. I'm from the IT field (software programmer) and can safely say your videos are hands down the best explanation. Beautifully & lucidly illustrated. Kudos to you :)
Short videos, straight to the point and really well explained. Congratulation mate! I wish the world had more people like you to make things work simpler and logically. Keep up with the nice material
We know everyone has their own way of teaching but why can't everyone teach the way this person is teaching. It is very simple & even a person with no technical knowledge can easily understand what is taught in this video. Excellent presentation, I will never forget the difference between the 2.4 ghz & 5 ghz. Thank you for this & keep up your great work. Not only this video, I have watched several video of your's they are so simple & easy to understand.

Well explained. The two work much like Bass and Treble in music. Bass (2.4) travels farther, but doesn't get as high, while Treble (5) gets higher but doesn't travel as far.
Old video I know, but as someone who has installed residential internet services for over a decade I find myself having to explain this to people at least 4-8 times a day. I might just start pointing customers to this video in the future. Thanks!
I really don't know how to say thank you for all these amazing videos. No one and no platform can teach me as perfect as this channel does. Keep it up! You make a great deal of difference in peoples lives
Excellent video as always! Your animations always make it so much easier to see the topic explained than just talking about it by itself. I love this channel.
It is not well explained. both 2.4 and 5 channels have the same speed, each channel is 20 mhz. what makes 5 ghz faster is that you can aggregate channels that are none overlapping so that you can get a 40 (N), 80 (AC) and even 160mhz which you don't have in the 2.4. 5ghz is not new, it has been there for more than 10 years and widely available for home users for the last 6 years. To get the higher speed, your clients needs to support it as well, so you need to update your laptops/smart devices as well to the latest, it is not just getting a new router.
And to be honest they don't know about this especially milennial kids oh one more thing which is funny 😅 SSID name: 5G network (but the frequency is 2.4)
Cautious note for people wanting to buy the recommended router in the descriptions link. The voltage is 110V AC. So if you’re in the UK for example where you need 230V, this won’t work and you’ll instantly damage the product as soon as you plug it in.
You idiot,USA AND UK PRODUCTS THAT REQUIRE ELECTRICITY ARE DESIGNED TO HANDLE THE DIFFERENT VOLTAGES SO 110V USA PRODUCTS WILL ONLY WORK ON THAT VOLTAGE AND UK PRODUCTS WILL HANDLE THE UK VOLTAGE WITH NO PROBLEMS ALSO,110 VOLT APPLIANCES WILL ONLY BE COMPATIBLE WITH USA OUTLETS AND NOT COMPATIBLE WITH UK OUTLETS
Wow! Kinda scary, this video showed up in my feed. I just had a technician come out to find the problem with my wifi connection. The issue was located outside but the scary part is that he explained everything the way you did in this video. Even scarier, the date of this video is around 20 months ago! Good job by the way. I'll probably go back and watch again later since I disabled the 5G for now.
One last thing to note... the 5 GHz band doesn't actually have 25 separate frequencies. What it has is 25 x 20 MHz bands. But wifi at 5 GHz is capable of ganging bands together. 802.11-n uses 40 MHz bands and there are only 12 channels. 802.11ac uses 80 MHz (6 channels) and 160 MHz (2 channels). In some countries (including the U.S.) additional channels are available. The 2.4 GHz band has a fourth non-overlapping channel (channel 14) and the 5 GHz band has a bunch more too. Some of the 5 GHz channels may be unusable due to radar also using those channels. The savings grace for the 5 GHz band is its low range. If you have nearly direct line of sight, the low range prevents other nearby routers from interfering with yours. So if you live in an apartment complex, for example, the 5 GHz band is virtually guaranteed to be superior to the 2.4 GHz band because the 2.4 GHz band will be filled up with all your neighbors wifi routers due to its longer range. But your neighbors 5 GHz routers won't have the same reach and are less likely to interfere with your 5 GHz. On the other-hand, if you live in a single-family home, 2.4 GHz can potentially cover the whole house without having to use relays, and your neighbors are far enough away that their 2.4 GHz won't interfere with yours. -Matt
feels like u can read my mind, got curious about 2.4/5GHz difference when i set up my modem and wifi extender and cctv recently. and saw this video. love it. Thanks for making these video.
Funny thing is I went to my family’s vacation house with my dad yesterday to drop some stuff off and I got a new phone since the last time I was there so I had to put in the wifi again. I was given a 2.4 and 5 option so I chose 5 thinking maybe it means something and maybe the connection would be better. Today after coming back, I look at this video and I was right. I was really curious and this popped up so looked at it. I feel satisfied now.
We, the Saint Petersburg Agrophysics Research Institute, use some TP-Link dual-band routers (AC1200 aka Archer 6). One's placed at the rear end of the meeting hall, its 5 GHz coverage is limited by the walls of that meeting hall. 2.4 GHz, however, is considerably strong even at the hall.
I HAVE BEEN using a dual band for about 5 years and its very good to have both because the new appliances mostly have both the 5.0 is at least 5 times faster the issue is its not a long signal you can not go as far away from the sending unit 2.4 is much longer distance
another disadvantage for 5ghz - as this is a rather new technology not all devices support it. Routers who do support 5ghz tend to be more costly than regular 2.4ghz.
Actually shorter range and non-penetration can be an advantage if you are in a crowded area and have security concerns. The 5GHz band sounds like it would be the choice to keep your neighbor from piggy backing on your connection.
One of the first smartphones to support dual band wireless networking capability was the Samsung Galaxy S2, and dual band wireless networking capability if fitted (either built in or external dongle) for media devices should be dual band capable considering that a number of wireless routers only have video optimizations for the 5 GHz band.
The only thing he didn’t point out is to not confuse the 5G router feature with the 5G cellphone data feature. Newer cellphones have both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi like the newest routers. But this has _nothing_ to do with so-called 5G data plans. There, 5G is kind of an arbitrary term simply meaning fifth generation cellular service. First generation was analog radio signals. Second generation switched to digital voice and data and allowed texting. Third generation (and the first called 3G) added higher speed digital data. Fourth generation added even higher data speeds. Fifth generation added still higher speeds. There’s some technical differences with each new generation too, but that’s the gist of it.
@@PowerCertAnimatedVideos I had one question. I am using a secondary router as extender. Which is Tp-Linkw841 & my primary router is Asus RT-N56U.

Many thanks for this instructive video. At my small office, I have a single band Router. At home, I have a dual band router. I hadn't figured this difference, advantages and disadvantages. Thanks again!
Excellent video I found your video footage most informative,Thank you very much for explaining the pros and cons of 2.4 GHz versus 5 GHz.Thanks to you I now have a better understanding About the differences.
Just installed the Netgear R7000 Nighthawk. Tested a roku ultra about 20ft away, through the floor and thru a concrete wall shooting down to the basement. Got all but one signal bar. The Nighthawk is rocking it.
Great Video my guy! TLDR: if you are close to the router and you're not separated by walls, you want to use the 5Ghz. full stop. If you want to cover more distance and the signal has to pass through walls, 2.5Ghz might be a better choice, UNLESS, there are a lot of wireless devices around that could interfere with the 2.4Ghz signal, as it is a commonly used frequency on devices.
The simple way to say it is this: 2.4GHz - High Amplitude, slow frequency, so information is less in quantity but consistent and less lossy 5GHz - Low Amplitude, High frequency, so a lot more information but very lossy due to energy dissipating fast
I felt like a Explorer! Looking for my own personal Oasis! And I found it! What I don't understand in Class! I take that trip to your Website! I feel the breeze and the calmness in my Spirit and Heart! Thank you! For being there! Just needed that extra reason!
Never Ends to Amaze me how people making these types of Video's don't understand why people look these sorts of things up your explanation was fine but i 100% would have explained the usage for the people who don't get the geek talk
It's like 2.4 and 5 are inverse in their advantages and disadvantages. I thought 5 GHz was better simply because it was a higher number than 2.4. Clearly not so.
I'm not sure I get your question. But If you asked about the work possible, well it's not a course, I was just asking for a video on Network + if that is possible 👍
If I update my wifi on my laptop to 5 GHz with a new chip, will my wireless printer and camera function...we already have a dual band Fiber optic router...
Years ago I was in I.T. support (5 years) - best, job, ever! Then joined the civil service - one day I tried to explain 2.4G to my, em, 'workmates' - I'd have been better off trying to teach classical Greek to a duck - I wish I could have shown them this presentation instead (they still wouldn't have understood a word but I wouldn't have lost my mojo (again) at the time. Thank you - great overview.
No cap! I used to put my PS4 and 5 on automatic… I now switched it to 5GHZ and now I’m installing 45 GB of Modern Warfare in 29 Minutes when it used to be 1&1/2 hours
Thank me later. 2.4GHz has a farther range and can go through solid objects although, it can be affected by things like a microwave or a house phone. 5GHz doesn’t get affected by anything and it has more no overlapping channels than the 2.4GHz but it has less range and it is harder for it to get through solid objects.
We used to only have 2.4GHz. At that time, I don't know that there are such things as 2.4GHz and 5GHz. One stormy day, a lightning struck near our house and because of that, our router died. It is still plugged in the socket but it's not working at all but that socket is working just fine. So I plugged my router to a different socket but it's still not working. So my brother called for an assistance to our Wi-Fi provider. The guy who went to our house to fix it tried to fix our router but it didn't work. I explained to them what happened to our router and I said it's about the lightning. Good thing that the guy brought a new router, so he took our old router and replaced it with a new one. I thought he would charge fees but he didn't. So when I started connecting, I noticed two connections and it says 2.4GHz and 5GHz. So I tried to connect 5GHz and it was very fast but when I tried to go to my room, I lost connection but I still see the 2.4GHz in my Wi-Fi connections so I connected it and it has a very long range. So when I am in our living room I use 5GHz and when I am in my room, I use 2.4GHz.
@@mouad6550 In my Wi-Fi settings, there are two options. For Example: PLDTHOMEFIBR13267 PLDTHOMEFIBR5G13267 I see both of them in my Wi-Fi connections. One of them is the 5GHz and the other is 2.4GHz. The 5GHz is obviously the "PLDTHOMEFIBR5G13267" because it has "5G" in it. So if you want to change from 5GHz to 2.4GHz, you need to change your wifi connection and connect it to the other connection which is the "PLDTHOMEFIBR13267". Both of them have the same password on mine. Some Wi-Fi names have 2.4 in them. If you want to switch the connection instantly, make sure that you already entered the password. Usually, when I go away, the 5GHz will disconnect and the 2.4GHz will connect because 5GHz has a low range. I don't know if this will work for you because my router could be different to yours. Ask your Wi-Fi provider if you need further help and assistance.
Question:Dual band routers perform both 2.4 and 5 ghz so do they perform together or is there a certain range u have to get in to get a 2.4 ghz or if ur close to the router would u get 5ghz.

@Adi Adiani I agree. Now, unless the higher frequency due to FCC regulations, has to be of a very low power, then range can be affected. Higher frequencies are more penetrating otherwise.
Do you think that 5ghz could be harmful for health.
It is a very penetrating frequency, now the power level it is not harmful when an FCC license was granted to it.
I used TP-LINK Archer AC3200
this router have tri_band:
1. 4.5Ghz
2. 5Ghz
but my dual band smartphone just can detect 2 of it. (1)4.5Ghz with strength signal (2)just one low signal 5.GHz
Easiest answer
2.4 is for long range reliable WiFi
5 is for close range and better WiFi

@@xuerongchin3219 what about 5G
@@xuerongchin3219 5G and 5Ghz is different. They have very different technologys the 5Ghz doesn't do anything.
Xue Rong Chin bro thats like saying light is more dangerous than a radio because it has a higher frequency and 10g is basically the hertz your microwave produces
No No No 60GHz
”its not just standard band that is used in wifi routers... It is also used in a lot of other devices like microwave ovens..”

Many thanks for this instructive video. At my small office, I have a single band Router. At home, I have a dual band router. I hadn't figured this difference, advantages and disadvantages. Thanks again!
very timely, I just received my new dual band router. Thanks for the info 👌🏿
Excellent video I found your video footage most informative,Thank you very much for explaining the pros and cons of 2.4 GHz versus 5 GHz.Thanks to you I now have a better understanding About the differences.
Man you are a legend of explanations and my best choice of subscriptions ever 😀
Thank you.
Guess who's calling their isp tomorrow???!
🙋♂️
Nice video, explained very well! 👍
Just installed the Netgear R7000 Nighthawk. Tested a roku ultra about 20ft away, through the floor and thru a concrete wall shooting down to the basement. Got all but one signal bar. The Nighthawk is rocking it.
Great Video my guy!
TLDR: if you are close to the router and you're not separated by walls, you want to use the 5Ghz. full stop.
If you want to cover more distance and the signal has to pass through walls, 2.5Ghz might be a better choice, UNLESS, there are a lot of wireless devices around that could interfere with the 2.4Ghz signal, as it is a commonly used frequency on devices.
This is the best and simplest explanation if seem. Nice job.
Thanks
The simple way to say it is this:
2.4GHz - High Amplitude, slow frequency, so information is less in quantity but consistent and less lossy
5GHz - Low Amplitude, High frequency, so a lot more information but very lossy due to energy dissipating fast
5 ghz sounds like my ex
If I enabled 5g in my network will i have fees ? or its the same for 2.4ghz ?
Great channel!!! Would really love to see your take on Mesh router systems!
This is clearest explanation of anything I have ever watched on RUclips. Big up man!!
Straight the point without any boring introduction and long talks 10/10
I connected my 2.5g router to my microwave and now I can cook anything on the internet.
This may be the single most helpful tutorial I've ever watched. Thanks so very much~!
Thank you for overexplaining it. I need that most of the time.
Yesterday I bought a new router and this video clarified some doubts
Thank you 😊
I felt like a Explorer! Looking for my own personal Oasis! And I found it! What I don't understand in Class! I take that trip to your Website! I feel the breeze and the calmness in my Spirit and Heart! Thank you! For being there! Just needed that extra reason!
Oh come on my microwave has a better internet connection then me.
Make sure to put on your tin-foil hat! jk lol
Great GURU. easy to learn more than my teacher hahaha. I hope there will be tutorial about diskless desktop.thank you
finally understood. huge thanks.
Never Ends to Amaze me how people making these types of Video's don't understand why people look these sorts of things up your explanation was fine but i 100% would have explained the usage for the people who don't get the geek talk
Trust me I Searched For This For Weeks, Finally Found The Video which Explains Like Water, Thanks A Lot Man!
Thanks it was informative. Cheers mate.
It's like 2.4 and 5 are inverse in their advantages and disadvantages. I thought 5 GHz was better simply because it was a higher number than 2.4. Clearly not so.
I just learned something new today, thank you for posting this video.... LM
Have I never seen such a crystal clear explanation for someone who finds it very difficult to understand tech
Omg I thought 5Ghz were better in everything, I didn't know it had shorter range, nice video
Well done once again *****
Network+ Security + if possible . Thanks !!
What is if possible?
I'm not sure I get your question.
But If you asked about the work possible, well it's not a course, I was just asking for a video on Network + if that is possible 👍
If I update my wifi on my laptop to 5 GHz with a new chip, will my wireless printer and camera function...we already have a dual band Fiber optic router...

Years ago I was in I.T. support (5 years) - best, job, ever! Then joined the civil service - one day I tried to explain 2.4G to my, em, 'workmates' - I'd have been better off trying to teach classical Greek to a duck - I wish I could have shown them this presentation instead (they still wouldn't have understood a word but I wouldn't have lost my mojo (again) at the time. Thank you - great overview.
No cap! I used to put my PS4 and 5 on automatic… I now switched it to 5GHZ and now I’m installing 45 GB of Modern Warfare in 29 Minutes when it used to be 1&1/2 hours
Thank me later. 2.4GHz has a farther range and can go through solid objects although, it can be affected by things like a microwave or a house phone. 5GHz doesn’t get affected by anything and it has more no overlapping channels than the 2.4GHz but it has less range and it is harder for it to get through solid objects.
Why would anyone thank you lol the guy in the video gave a more detailed explanation
Great channel, needs to survive.
Thanks.
We used to only have 2.4GHz. At that time, I don't know that there are such things as 2.4GHz and 5GHz. One stormy day, a lightning struck near our house and because of that, our router died. It is still plugged in the socket but it's not working at all but that socket is working just fine. So I plugged my router to a different socket but it's still not working. So my brother called for an assistance to our Wi-Fi provider. The guy who went to our house to fix it tried to fix our router but it didn't work. I explained to them what happened to our router and I said it's about the lightning. Good thing that the guy brought a new router, so he took our old router and replaced it with a new one. I thought he would charge fees but he didn't. So when I started connecting, I noticed two connections and it says 2.4GHz and 5GHz. So I tried to connect 5GHz and it was very fast but when I tried to go to my room, I lost connection but I still see the 2.4GHz in my Wi-Fi connections so I connected it and it has a very long range. So when I am in our living room I use 5GHz and when I am in my room, I use 2.4GHz.
How did you change it bro
@@mouad6550 change what?
@@Konimiru from 5 to 2.4
@@mouad6550 In my Wi-Fi settings, there are two options.
For Example:
PLDTHOMEFIBR13267
PLDTHOMEFIBR5G13267
I see both of them in my Wi-Fi connections. One of them is the 5GHz and the other is 2.4GHz. The 5GHz is obviously the "PLDTHOMEFIBR5G13267" because it has "5G" in it. So if you want to change from 5GHz to 2.4GHz, you need to change your wifi connection and connect it to the other connection which is the "PLDTHOMEFIBR13267". Both of them have the same password on mine. Some Wi-Fi names have 2.4 in them. If you want to switch the connection instantly, make sure that you already entered the password. Usually, when I go away, the 5GHz will disconnect and the 2.4GHz will connect because 5GHz has a low range. I don't know if this will work for you because my router could be different to yours. Ask your Wi-Fi provider if you need further help and assistance.
@@Konimiru ok thanks a lot
This is what I was looking for. Nicely explained!
brilliant. thank you all who contributed to this video
5GHZ will also get crowded soon

Question:Dual band routers perform both 2.4 and 5 ghz so do they perform together or is there a certain range u have to get in to get a 2.4 ghz or if ur close to the router would u get 5ghz.
You would be able to pick up the 2.4 close or far but the 5 would only be usable close range
@@DamianASlayer ok thanks although its a year now but stil lol.
Your teaching style is amazing
