When multiple devices attempt to use the same radio space, it results in overcrowding as these devices add noise to the medium thus decreasing the speed of wireless networks. Many WiFi-enabled technologies and household devices use the 2.4 GHz band such as microwaves, cordless phones and garage door openers. Interference from other devicesĪ WiFi connection’s speeds on a particular frequency band are also affected by interference from other devices. But the downside aside, higher frequencies actually deliver data transmission much faster than lower frequencies, so with the 5 GHz band, you can upload and download files faster than when using the 2.4 GHz band. The explanation for a lower range in the 5 GHz band is that higher frequencies find it hard to penetrate solid objects, such as walls and floors.
