I need some guidance about logging in to my wifi network as my new TP Link 3 band Archer AC 4000 is showing 3 networks as login options  for my wifi network

 

A 2.4 GHz band and 2 5GHz bands

 

Should   I log in to the first 2.4GHz band option or will I have to login to the other 5GHz bands under certain circumstances as needed?

 

Thanks for your help

Hi, you can connect to any one of the 3 wifi networks as you want; 

 

The default password is the same, which is printed on the bottom label. 

 

For the difference between 2.4GHz and 5GHz, the 2.4GHz has larger wifi coverage area but the speed will be lower; on the other hand, the 5GHz speed is faster while the coverage distance is shorter. 

 

Good day.
