wi fi frequencies

I can only see the 2.5 gig on the wi fi listings. Why doesn't 5 gig show and how do i connect to it.

Does your device have the ability to see the 5? Not all do...If you are using a Comcast gateway the networks may be combined. You can use the myaccount app to verify settings

The two WiFi bands have recently been combined into one with the Comcast gateway devices. Some devices get confused and don't know how to see / talk to combined bands.


If you are not using any Xfi Pods, you can try separating the 2.4 and the 5.0 bands and give them two different broadcast names / SSID's;

Yes I do have devices that showed 5 g with a rival company. Also shouldn't I have the smaller modem for xfi fi instead of the tall tower?
