The 5 GHz band offers less range, but delivers faster speeds thanks to less congestion and wider channels. The 2.4 GHz band offers better WiFi coverage, but is prone to more congestion due to heavy network traffic. What's the difference between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands?
If you have a BlueCurve Gateway, you should now use the same WiFi name and password for both your 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, so you can take advantage of this seamless connection to the best network. However, by using the same WiFi name and password for both, devices will connect seamlessly to the most optimal band at any given time. You will still have both bands and all the associated functionality, channels and range. With the BlueCurve Gateway, using the same name and password for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands allows the Gateway to sort out which one will provide a better connection at any given time. Knowing which would provide the best connection and performance was not always clear, and could take some trial and error. You then had to choose which band your devices should connect to. With other modems, it's often necessary to use a different WiFi name and password for each band. The Gateways is "dual band," meaning that it broadcasts two separate radio bands for your WiFi network - a 2.4 GHz band and a 5 GHz band.
The BlueCurve Gateway is an all-in-one device that delivers whole-home WiFi coverage, fast Internet speed and the ability to control your home network - for the ultimate connected experience. Benefits of using one WiFi name and password
