The 5GHZ is faster and more stable but shorter range that's why i need it. I don't want to spend extra money buying Ethernet Adapter and another router.

When I unsplit it, the speed and range actually increased, though slight difference. I just ordered for the ethernet adpater and tp link router. I can't spend this amount and be getting barely 40mbps cheesy

How much you spent all total and do you mind giving the name of the TP Link Router?

It's going to be worth it with the ethernet adapter, better speed and longer range

Same speed when I first used mine, though it has improved small to like 30-40mbps for the 2.4ghz. Use the 5ghz

I can tell you that Starlink router is the culprit here. I got 70-90Mbps with my old TP-Link Router I bought 4 years ago for just $59 in Aliexpress. Now imagine what a high end router would do.

Regarding the 5GHz channel, my Samsung S20 Ultra couldn't see it but I got an impressive speed of 200Mbps with my GPD Win 4.

When buying this router, please buy the US version and not the EU version, so you'll not be having regrets like me.
The EU version doesn't allow you to set band 4 higher 5ghz channels which is what most Samsung devices need to allow you to connect to 5ghz wifi.


Check the carton (the area where you'll see the serial number) and you'll see where EU or US is written.
en0uwem: 9:53pm On Nov 24, 2023
A common, yet frustrating way to connect to 5ghz temporary if your phone is having difficulties finding it, is to put your phone in flight mode and turn it off. Turn on the phone, turn on the wifi first, connect to the 5ghz WiFi, then turn off airplane mode.

Or use the phone permanently without sim card.
