Can't connect to 5 Ghz network

IRONBATMAN · Nov 6, 2013

Hi

I have a Asus RT AC66U router , and a TP-Link TL-WDN3800 adapter , but I can't connect to the 5 GHz network.

Whenever I try to connect to it , it would revert back to the 2.4 GHz network.

pls help , any input would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

I bought one and had the exact same problem. Basically the drivers are junk. Eventually I returned the card for a refund.

Read here, this might help. It didn't help me, but it's obviously worked for some people.

Are you using the Tp-Link software or the Windows 7 system tray icon to make your connection?

I would suspect that if you go into the network control panel, manage wireless networks, and move the 5GHz network to the top of the automatic connect priority list and the 2.4GHz at the bottom (or even delete it if necessary) you will stay connected to the 5GHz.

looks like this website was provided by TP-Link to solve the problem.

RealBeast :

When I went to that menu , there was only 1 connection. It didn't even state whether it was 5 GHz or not.

gopher1369 :

After installing the driver , do I need to do anything else ? When I was done installing it Chrome opens the file.

sorry , I don't usually install drivers , I expected a .exe file or an application to lead me somewhere else.
