  1. Connect to the WiFi network.
  2. Open your networks panel from your taskbar (click the WiFi icon in the bottom right).
  3. Click on “Properties” of your WiFi network.

Is Tri-Band Mesh necessary?

It’s a niche need, but if you are someone who needs it, tri-band is the only option. If you don’t absolutely need it, it’s not a great future-proof choice either though.

  3. Select Wireless from the menu.
  4. In the 802.11 band selection field, you can select 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz.
  5. Click on Apply to save the Settings.
