[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1887347, member: 110816"] 2.4 Ghz gives you better range and is stronger to get through walls and other inference at slower speeds while 5 Ghz sacrifices all that for faster speeds. However, 2.4 GHz is still faster than your Internet speed, so it shouldn't matter. The CenturyLink device might just be a crappy WiFi access point. To that end, you would use a different device to service your WiFi needs while you connect it to the CenturyLink device as a wired interface like you had with the Airport Extreme. However, before you do any of that, now that you are just using the CenturyLink device, you should get in touch with their support to first verify that everything is configured/working properly. You are within your right to ask them to meet the bandwidth you're paying for. Once that is resolved, you can think about adding other devices. If you put other devices in the way, they will have a way out saying that they can't guarantee devices that they didn't provide. [/QUOTE]
