People are getting way too confused with todays technology nomenclature when it comes to 5G and 5Ghz.
They are 2 completely different technologies and not related.
The “5G” is actually short for “5th Generation” and relates to the mobile phone network and the number of major iterations of technology used in the infrastructure. In a few short years there will the roll-out of the “6G” or “6th Generation” network. None of this has anything to do with Wi-Fi.
The “5Ghz” is all about a specific radio frequency range used by Wi-Fi networks. There are currently 2 major radio frequency waves used in domestic Wi-Fi equipment, that being 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. Basically the higher a radio frequency used, the more “bandwidth” (speed) increases. However the higher the radio frequency also means that the distance from the router needed to support the faster speed gets shorter. The reason that 2.4Ghz is favoured by many iOT (internet of things) devices (including EMO) is that the distance from the router is less an issue and the speed is still perfectly fine for general communication. If they were to use 5Ghz frequency in EMO (which is NOT supported and requires different hardware) you would probably have to be a whole lot closer to the router to ensure connection doesn’t drop out.
I hope that helps.
