Asus AC68 Wi-Fi card problems. Not achieving 5GHz speed, only stuck at 2.4GHz.
Hi, I've tested various solutions but haven't managed to achieve 5GHz performance. Previously it worked well, now it's stuck at 2.4GHz. I searched Reddit and YouTube but found no helpful guides. The PowerShell settings didn't help since I don't have the advanced tools others use. Trying a 5GHz-only Wi-Fi network didn't resolve the issue. I reinstalled drivers for my ASUS router, which led to Broadcom 7.77.11.0 being installed as recommended. That didn't work either. Reseating the card didn't help. When I accessed the settings, I couldn't locate any network preferences or options to switch modes. Any suggestions? It was functional at one point. Thanks!
Which system is currently running? To simplify, create a separate 5GHz network using a different password. Remove any existing Wi-Fi passwords you have. Begin with the default WPA2-PSK setting and check if it connects to the 5GHz network. If it doesn’t connect without a password, switch to a channel change. Adjust your Wi-Fi card settings to operate on the 5GHz band and test the changes step by step.
Set up a new network named mytestwifi5ghz without a password or security features. Check if it connects to a 5GHz Wi-Fi signal.
I've already attempted it. I checked my router and found only 5Ghz available. The Wi-Fi reported "cannot connect to network."
HDWID refers to the hardware ID width for PCIe AC68 cards. It indicates how many bytes are used to identify the device in the PCIe bus.
I'm not sure. I refreshed Windows and updated everything. I noticed I was connected to a 5GHz network initially. After switching the router to 2.4GHz, it stopped working. I reset the network settings, checked the IP configuration, and restarted the router, but it still didn't work. It seems either the issue is with Windows or the router itself.
