Definition
Wi-Fi 5 GHz is a wireless frequency band that can provide higher throughput but often shorter range than 2.4 GHz. It is normally considered alongside site connectivity, router/modem configuration, signal availability and ongoing remote support.
Why it matters
It may be useful where supported, but charger location, walls and signal strength can affect reliability. For UK users, it affects whether a charger can remain connected reliably for authorisation, payments, diagnostics and software updates.
