Network Adapter Problems

Recently i was trying to activate 5ghz WIFI Networking on the Qualcomm Atheros qca61x4a, which i got with my Asus strix z270e gaming. Unfortunately tho, the option used to enable 802.11ac wifi simply doesn´t show up. The attached file is a picture of what my advanced settings look like. I´ve tried to update the drivers and even use an older one, but nothing worked out.

Normally you shouldn't have to enable anything, it should just work and detect any 5GHz wifi networks it has access too.

 

How do you know that the 5GHz on the card is not working?

Thank you very much for the fast reply! I haven´t tried connecting to a 5ghz network yet, but i ordered a new router with 5ghz support because the Lighthouse stations from my HTC Vive kept interfering with the 2,4ghz wifi signal. But since it´s enabled by default, i´ll try connecting it to 5ghz as soon as my router arrives. I´ll let you know if it worked out :D

If your phone is capable of creating a 5GHz wifi hotspot you could test it that way while you wait for the new router.
