You're asking whether switching from a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network to a 5GHz network is feasible, especially since you're also using Ethernet. The short answer is yes, but there are some considerations.

Using a 5GHz Wi-Fi connection over Ethernet is possible, though it depends on your device's capabilities and the network settings. Most modern devices support dual-band or tri-band Wi-Fi, so connecting to the 5GHz network should work if your router supports it. However, you might notice slightly different performance due to frequency differences—5GHz generally offers faster speeds but has a shorter range.

If you're using Ethernet for other tasks, ensure your device is set up correctly for both networks. It’s not a strict requirement, but it can improve overall connectivity. Let me know if you want more details!
