Sorry about the confusion.

Basically followed the same instructions as you wrote below (think I even took them from your reply on an older thread so thanks!) plus 'ndb/dns -r'. Worked for 2.4GHz but not for 5GHz. A quick internet search suggests a possibility that the 5GHz band may need to be enabled by setting the regulatory domain/region. Will give it another try at some point; a bit hesitant right now since it's a normally headless setup and I don't want to mess with connectivity too often. > Here's what works for me: > > term% bind -a '#l1' /net > term% aux/wpa -2p -s 1d2e12-5GHz /net/ether1 > > !Adding key: essid=1d2e12-5GHz proto=wpapsk > password: > term% ip/ipconfig ether /net/ether1 > term% cat /net/ipselftab > term% ip/ping 9p.io > sending 32 64 byte messages 1000 ms apart to icmp!9p.io!1 > 0: rtt 32638 µs, avg rtt 32638 µs, ttl = 246 > 1: rtt 29566 µs, avg rtt 31102 µs, ttl = 246 > ... -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tbb87a85e4d7ad382-M24feb931340b10cc3bc8a701 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription

I was trying to do just that last night on a very old pi3b+ and it seemed to choke on aux/wpa -2p -s SSID_5G /net/ether1 It was way past my bedtime so I quickly gave up and connected to a 2.4GHz SSID instead. -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tbb87a85e4d7ad382-M1ad3f887bdc9a09c2d3ffe0a Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription

I can't recall whether the ether4330 driver tries to connect to 5ghz channels. You could experiment by giving your router a separate 5ghz-only SSID and see if you can connect to that. -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tbb87a85e4d7ad382-Ma9a27990132497ebf382d513 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
[9fans] pi3 b+ and 5ghz wifi
hi, does the pi3 b+ support 5ghz wifi? i have a feeling it doesn’t but i cannot find a message in 8fans passim which states one way of the other, i understand it will probably be no quicker but i am seeing miserable performance from wifi at the moment which i am fairly sure is due to my neighbours on the 2.4ghz band. 5ghz on the other hand looks fairly free. on the same topic - is 5ghz supported on the pi4 ? -Steve -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tbb87a85e4d7ad382-M2a7471bf4613d890e1160698 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
