Whats the true speed of the wifi?
Ok this might be a noob question but I will ask. I understand for wifi there is 2.4 GHz & 5 Ghz. What confuses me is a router manufacturer will say "AC2300 WiFi - 600+1625 Mbps speeds".
- is this saying if I hook up my laptop to wifi that it will have speeds of 1200mbps?
- is it saying 600mpbs is the 2.4 Ghz stream and 1625 is the 5Ghz stream? If so, then technically I "CANNOT" connect to both 2.4 GHz & 5Ghz.
If I connect my laptop, its either I connect to 2.4 (600) "OR" 5 Ghz (1625). It seems as if they are saying I will get 2300 but I dont think thats the case. Perhaps its just the total bandwidth of all devices connected. Then at that point them marketing AC2300 is pointless to me.
