This WiFi device connected beautifully, but it is transmitting on the 2.4G band. I have a dual band router and wonder if I can have the 5001 transmit on 5.0G?

I would certainly put the faster plug alongside the modem. That should ensure a quicker link between the plugs, which would do no harm to the wifi speed. That is how I set up mine.
Just replace the XAV200 with the XAV5201. If it doesn't work, then go through the pairing process.
