    Can't connect to 5Ghz WiFi on Windows


    Firstly, Windows doesn't even show the 5G networks. When it does momentarily, when I'm changing between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz modes, it says that it can't connect to that network.

    The card I have in my laptop is QC Atheros 9377 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter. It supports all the 5G modes. The drivers are up to date.

    I have tried connecting to the same network on Ubuntu on the same laptop and it works normal.

    What can I do to fix this?


    :)

    5GHz Wifi

    Hello. I want to connect to 5GHz wifi, but its not showing up in the connection list. I've done a bit of research and my laptop should be able to connect to the 5GHz band.

    5ghz wifi not showing windows 10

    I just got a new modem/router and it has a 2.4ghz and 5ghz wifi connections...Only the 2.4ghz shows in the wifi list while the 5ghz isn't showing at all. My computer's network card does support the 5ghz and I know the 5ghz is working because I can connect to it from other devices...just not my desktop computer.

    EDIT: I've attempted updating network driver, also resetting network in the settings menu. Both hasn't worked.
