bands r provided by networks if ur network
provides wifi over 5ghz thn it'll connect only
I'm using college wifi so I have no control over AP....the point is I want to prefer 5ghz band but there is no option for band preference.

..I have NO ACCESS to router ..I can't access the admin page and change the AP settings..I just want to disable the 2.4 GHz band of my smartphone so that it only connect at 5ghz as a client .like those redmi note 4 ...I tried with some apps but they didn't work...I think it's Oreo that's bothering..

Hi guys, anyone can help me out here with regards to connecting our SGS2 to Wireless N network? I have tried changing my radio frequency setting and even resorted to using WEP authentication instead of WPA, but I just can't get the phone to connect via N network, it always connects via G instead. But under the same settings, I am able to connect my acer laptop and my wife's iphone4 to the N network.
Is there any specific settings I need to configure on my router? I am using a Prolink H5004N adsl2+ modem with wireless N router. The modem is compliant to IEEE 802.11n standards, not draft-n and should work with the SGS2?

Not sure, but I think that it will connect if your N-network are in the 2.4 GHz frequency area, but not in the 5.0 GHz

Yup, tried that too, but still connects to G only. I have also tried configuring router to accept only N networks instead of G/N, but then the SGS2 will not even see the SSID when its performing a wireless scan.

Ive got the same issue. Router Asus RT-N16 (b/g/n, 2.4GHz). Playing with different router firmwares, settings and so on - no luck so far.
Check the "advanced" settings by pressing the menu button in the wireless and make sure nothing wierd is set in there.
Otherwise, as long as the router is set to N only on the 2.4ghz band, it should at _least_ see the SSID.
That modem supports WPS, try pressing the WPS button on the back of the modem and then use the "WPS button connection" option in the wi-fi settings menu on the SGS2.
Remember the single-channel 802.11n 2.4ghz such as the SGS2 supports will only max out at 72mbps anyway so there's not a huge improvement over the 54mbps that 11g will give you, although 11n is more efficient.

I've got the same unit and it works fine with it, that said I'm running a recent build of the Tomato firmware on mine. I don't think I even powered it up fully with the original firmware...

thx for fast reply
SGS2 can see SSID, but fails to connect until I force RT-N16 (with custom firmware, RT-N16-1.9.2.7-rtn-r3121) down to "Use 802.11 G only".
Never had any problems with other 802.11 N powered devices.
only wpa2-aes or no encryption are N-standard

wireless N only officially supports either WPA2-AES encryption or no encryption. Devices with drivers that more closely comply to the spec will not connect to WEP or WPA.
I hope you fixed the issue. I stumbled across this thread while asking the same question; maybe someone else will benefit by having this thread wrapped-up also. No haters, egos, persons, etc please. It's been necessary already to block a few of you.
My Xperia Z2 does not connect on 802.11n wifi, this is a bug in the firmware .402 ? I mean, the device finds the network but not connect! When I change to G / B, connect it back!

It happens in .438 based too. It used to connect to network by themselves, but not anymore. It happens with my friends Z1 too. So I think this is something wrong with wifi auto connect

Aussie .402 here and 2x Z2's working fine on 'N' - Auto connecting etc...
Sure its not your router or the channel?

The device does not connect automatically (based on location), and does not connect when I select "connect" the network that I want!

The channel is set to automatic, but I believe the problem is not that! Very strange... So I change to B or G, the smartphone connects smoothly! And there's nothing wrong with the router, since my Smart TV connects normally and Xbox ONE too!

I tried to tell you to turn off location based auto connect, it might solve the problem? I am in school and school is not allowing me to use phone on school time , so I can't try it now....
Also if you have got more than one router (or SSID) try to use only one AP... for example I am using multi router to cover my huge house in and sometime phone is not allowing me to connect to the network that I want, it connects to other AP.
Just in case I share my environment. I purchased Xperia Z2 from Australian Telco Telstra and I flashed RomAur 3.7. Stock Kernel.
My routers are using 2.4ghz and distance between 2routers are 12m. and I mainly use my phone in 1m away from router A(router that I want to use.)

I'll try to disable Auto Connect when you get home! And I own only one router at home! Tks very much for reply!

Even disabling Auto Connect the device does not connect to the network "N". In "G" network connects smoothly! The modem / router has frequency of 2.4GHz, has something to do?
I also tried to change channels, but it still fails...

No more idea sorry mate. As soon as I find solution I will share with you. Till then you gotta connect to wifi with bg...... sorry about that.
I'm also having this issue. I have a dual band router with 2.4 and 5ghz simultaneous wifi networks and i doesn't connect properly or at all on the 5ghz network. I thought i was my router's fault.

My router has 2.4Ghz frequency ... it's very strange it do not connect!
Just sharing result. I tested with my 2router disabling location based auto connect, but it didn't connect automatically and not letting me to use the hot spot that I want to use. As it is not happening with my HTC One .
I think this is something wrong with software and we probably just have to wait.(maybe can send report to SOMC)

Hi fellow xda members. I recently purchased the Samsung S9 Plus SM-G965F variant and in Wifi it cannot see the 5Ghz network that i have created. It will only detect the 2.4Ghz networks. I have installed the wifi-analyzer app as well but that also doesnt see it whereas my iphone can see it and connect to the 5ghz network without any issues. Ive been googling and searching this forum but couldnt find anyone having the same problem as me. I am not that experienced in android so dont know what could be the solution. Here are a few more details that might help
Baseband version: G965FXXU2BRG8
Build Number: R16NW.G965FXXU2BRGA
never mind....problem was with the router not broadcasting ssid on a greater channel range. Fixed it. Thread can be closed

I'm also havingthe same issue.it's definitely not a problem with the router..my every device can detect 5ghz wifi while s9 plus can't. ? ..
What to plz help..
Go to your wifi router settings and change the 5Ghz channel. Set it to one that is not too crowded (use the wifi analyser app) and that all your devices can connect. In my case the channel 157 solved my problem. I live in Canada and channel regulations can be different depending on each country laws.
Solved It

Hi
My Device see at first startup.. 5ghz network... I restore app.. Etc and now impossible to see 5ghz network.. My note 9 see it
I'm using Redmi note 9 pro(indian) variant. MiUi global stable 12.0.5
Recently i bought a xiaomi duel band router and i have separated 5GHz and 2.4GHz band in the router setting.
But my redmi 9 pro is showing only the 2.4 GHz SSD. Though it worked on 5GHz for few hours.
***There's no problem in the router as my laptop and other devices are working fine in 5G band.
***** I have tried changing the region. *****
I tried to manually add the network SSID and password but it didn't work.
Then i have tried to change the channel in router setting. It didn't work either.
Did anyone have faced this problem and know any solution?
This is a bug in android 11, the temporary solution is first open the hotspot and the connect wifi , wifi connected then go to wifi setting and change 'dhcp ip' into 'static ip' and then turnoff hotspot.
