Fallen Archangel Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I'm not really familiar with how the different WiFi technologies work. (a,b,n,g.c...) Would it be possible to get the pineapple to work with 5Gh networks? I realize you probably can't just switch out antennas or something, but I think it's worth asking. If there is nothing I can do to the existing equipment, if I were to attach a card via USB that supports it, would it work? If so, would the infusions work with it, or just stuff through SSH?

Xcellerator Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Absolutely, as the WiFi connection is handled by the firmware drivers themselves, using a 5GHz usb adapter will work just fine. You'll be able access the internet and use all the infusions as normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWoodser Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Does anyone have a recommendation as to what hardware (5Gh/WiFi AC) cards work with the Mark 5? I was playing around the other day and was unable to "PineApple" my devices.....I realized they were connected to my new router as 5Gh devices and I was unable to see them via PineAP. Thanks in advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1052 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I really like to know this as well. I have been googling and looking up different 5ghz adapters but what from what I have gathered 5ghz is quite flaky on OpenWRT. I don't really care about AC I just want 5Ghz, if anyone has managed to get one to work with the MkV please let me know. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
