No he has whales around but hes not in whales

my bad

he has a whale but isn't in Wales

is it worth it getting a 5ghz router

If you have fast internet

if you consider 80-90 megabit fast

generaly yes if you have wireless network devices what support it and are used in scenarios what need speed

for tablets and such they are irrelevant pretty much

but for laptops etc they actualy might have some benefits

I mostly use a laptop and my current phone which is mi 9t

Laptop will probably see difference unless its old like mine

On my phone I didn't notice any difference

and you wont be (hopefully) transfering such amounts of data that the benefit actualy shows

who ever does FTP/Torrents on their phone should be beaten to hell and so on and so forth

Only thing I noticed on my phone was shittier connection coverage

(obviously emerency FTP stuff is normalish)

I am more interested in streaming on my laptop and phone tbh

yeah 5.whatever ghz has quite bit worse penetration

higher freq = worse penetration?

Yes

yes*

*some exemptions apply

Cut out a coke can to strengthen coverage in one direction

^dont

also if you mean streaming stuff your normal "N" network is good enough for almost any stuff

I don't know if my laptop will support 5ghz

also torrenting stuff when I am too lazy to get up and go to my desktop

nvm it might work

basically I have a 2.4ghz router/modem provided by my internet provider in my living room but I want to get another 5ghz router so I can be lazy and torrent and stream stuff in bed on my laptop or just stream stuff on my phone (in the highest possible quality obviously)

If you have a modem/router combo then you should benefit from having a dedicated router, yes

Unless you have a good combo unit but usually isps don't provide good ones
