Does anyone know of another way to force a client to only connect to
the 5ghz band?  I can only think of a few other options:

1- Find/make a u.f.l. antenna that somehow only does 5ghz - so far
everything I see is both 2.4 and 5ghz.
2- Find a 5ghz only 802.11n adapter that works with linux (I don't
think this exists).
3- Use Windows (sad ...but it is the difference between 30Mbps and
60Mbps in this case)

Thanks,

Curtis
