What are the different frequencies of wireless networks?
I’m sure you’ve seen “2G”, “5G”, and maybe even “6G” after wireless network names when you connect to them. These additions to the network name are to identify the frequency of the wireless network.
Higher frequency wireless networks provide faster speeds than 2.4 GHz networks, but their wireless signals do not travel as far from the router. In other words, you need to be physically closer to the router if you want to use the higher frequency networks without any problems.
This makes higher frequency wireless networks ideal for bandwidth-intensive activities like streaming, video conferencing, and online gaming. Any internet activities that don’t require extensive bandwidth are best suited for a 2.4 GHz wireless network. The 2.4 GHz wireless network is also a good option when you need to access the internet and you are far away from your router and out of range of the higher frequency networks.
