New to nighthawk ac1900
Hello and hope you can help, just got a new nighthawk ac1900 and when searching for router on iPhone 2 come up but when searching by blue ray player 1 comes up. Are both the same speed? Thanks
I have no idea what ssids are and how do you change any of the passwords or network names. Just went from dsl to cable today. Live in the sticks and finally have other isp options. Please tell me what to do. Just called Best Buy cause that's where I got it and they have no idea. Which is faster? The regular network that pops up or the -5g one. My phones and tablets all found 2 and Apple TV also found 2. Please help
SSIDs are the two network names (for instance the one that ends in -5G)
5G is faster when you are close to the router, so it's usually the best choice when you see it.
Both work, so there's no worries if the one that doesn't end with -5G is the only option.
