Why does my laptop always open to 5GHz when I have 2GHz selected?
Because of the EXTREME consumption of bandwidth that happens no matter what I do to minimize it, I've set my Gen5 WiFi settings to 2.4GHz (see image below), since 5GHz would be even more consumptive. However, almost every single time I start up my laptop in the a.m. the WiFi connects at 5GHz anyway. What can I do to prevent this? I need to conserve every tiny byte I can! The laptop OS is Win7. I turn off the power to the modem nightly (I'm on solar power and must conserve that way as well).
