How to get the most out of your dual-band router
The most common reason people purchase dual-band routers is to ensure available bandwidth for streaming high-definition video. Users also want to make sure that their video
streams won’t be interrupted by other wireless network traffic. To get the most out of your dual-band router, you should upgrade your wireless clients and split your traffic.
Upgrade your wireless clients
If you have network adapters that support only legacy wireless network standards such as 802.11b, you should consider upgrading them with Wireless-N (802.11n) network adapters.
Wireless-B (802.11b) devices can slow your entire wireless network. For the best performance, all of your wireless devices should support Wireless-N. You can then select
Wireless-N Only as your Network Mode below.
NOTE
If you select Wireless-N Only, you may need to temporarily change
your network settings to Mixed to provide access to guests without
Wireless-N networking.
