with a frequency of 5 GHz, same as other Wi-Fi devices.
yThe surrounding wireless environment can cause the wireless network service to run slowly.
yIf you do not turn off the entire local home network, network traffic may occur on some devices.
yFor an AP connection, an access point device that supports wireless connection is required and the
wireless connection feature must be enabled on the device. Contact your service provider regarding
availability of wireless connection on your access point.
