FCC increases 5GHz spectrum 2014

of course it took a couple years before hardware began to appear to take advantage of this.

my 5GHz outperforms my 2.4 greatly now with the new Asus 86U router I just bought that fully embracses the changes.

eta unfortunately shitty products like my Ring spotlight only support 2.4 so these continue to limp along.

Two different things. Yes, throughput is greater on 5GHz, but coverage area is greater on 2.4GHz operating at the same power.
