Can't create 5 ghz hotspot

My laptop is Dell Inspiron 7566, network adapter is Intel Dual-band Wireless AC 3165, supporting both 2.4 and 5 ghz networks; latest Windows 10 version with all recommended updates, all laptop-side drivers are also up-to-date.

So recently I noticed that internet on my phone when it connected to hotspot on computer became really slow. I figured out that my room is virtually jam-packed by 2.4 ghz networks, but there's the only 5ghz network so I decided if I switch hotspot to 5ghz
it should work much better (formerly I created hotspot with automatic band choose and I think that system created 5ghz hotspot, but then something happened and it switched to 2.4 ghz).

But Windows tells me that "The selected network band isn't available. Select a different band and try again". Any suggestions?

 

Laptop wont connect to Android hotspot 5ghz but does on 2.4ghz

good evening, I have a problem where i cant connect to 5Ghz hotspot from my samsung 21. It is set up as 5Ghz on my phone but says unable to connect to network. If i set my phone as 2.4Ghz it will connect fine. I have ruled out the phone as i can connect my works phone to the 5Ghz hotspot. When i try set up my works phone as the 5Ghz hot spot i get the same issue on the laptop. I have tried everything i can think of. My laptop does connect to 5Ghz wifi as this is what i use in my home to game. It just seems to be hotspot that it wont allow. Below is a list of what i have tried. Forgetting the hotspot Flight mode Manually adding the wireless connection Changing network adapters to show 5Ghz connections only Updating windows to latest update Network adapters are updated One thing i did do that worked the first time was open command prompt and do these commands below netsh winsock reset netsh int ip reset ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew ipconfig /flushdns Then i restarted laptop and it connected to 5Ghz hotspot. Then after 30 minutes it disconnected and i have not been able to connect again, even after repeating the above steps. Please help! Thank you

 

5ghz Hotspot not working

Recently upgraded my motherboard which has a intergrated AX210 wi-fi adapter. I have been trying to create a 5ghz hotspot, but everytime I do I get the same message:

"The selected network band isn't available. Select a different band and try again"

I've seen this article online but I don't know if this is relavant as I have several other devices that can start a 5ghz hotspot (including a windows laptop with a AX201)

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000029083/wireless.html

I have checked my drivers, BIOS and firmware and they all seem up to date.

I've also messed around with the network band settings on the edit page and the Wi-Fi adapter configuration settings with no luck.

I've tested the issue on Windows 11 and 10 and the issue is the same on both OSs.

Any suggestions on what to try next?
