How to force 5GHz on T2U Nano adapter
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I've just bought a T2U Nano adapter and installed it on my Surface Pro 3 running latest Win10 with all updates. With the inbuilt adapter, I could force it to only use the 5GHz band of my router: how can I do this with the T2U Nano?
In looking at the adapter properties for the T2U, I see:
but have no idea which property/value might let me do this. Can anyone advise, please.
Thanks,
Tony.

The most easiest way is that you can setup different network name for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz of your main router, and then connect the Archer T2U nano to the 5GHz only.
The computer won't connect to other wireless networks if there is no other network profile existed.
May it help.

@Kevin_Z Thanks, Kevin. I've just had a new router installed by cable company and was warned not to change any settings for the First couple of weeks, so will try this later.
I did find that if I enabled *both* adapters on the SP3 (internal and T2U), I occasionally managed to get the speed up to 25Mbps, though still well short of the 50Mbps my mobile provides in the same location. I'm starting to think the SP3 is the problem.

I see, thanks for your reply.
You can connect it to the 5GHz to test the speed; and you can change another device to run a comparison test with the Archer T2U nano.
Any updates, please let us know.
Good day.
