@RaviSodvadiya 2.4GHz has more range than 5GHz because it gets through walls easier.

 

If you have good speed with 2.4GHz don't worry comparing, you do not need 5GHz for 40Mbps.

@RaviSodvadiya 

 

Compared to 2.4GHz, the 5GHz has faster speed but wifi range is shorter due to the interferences. You can change the wireless channel and channel width to improve the wifi performance, like channel 36, 40 and 44, channel width as 40MHz. 

 

And please ensure that the firmware is up to date. 

 

Besides, you can purchase a network expansion device to boost wifi signal, like range extender and powerline adapter with wifi function. Like RE450, RE650, TL-WPA8630PKIT.

@Kevin_Z  thanks for reply

Can you suggest me what is meaning of 5GHz,.why I not received long range ? 

When I purchased this device that time I understand 5GHz use for long distance.

If 2.4GHz is best for normal use how can we use this 5GHz? 

I hope you understand what I said

Thanks again...
