NETGEAR98 or NETGEAR98-5G
I have a WNDR 3400. When setting up my devices, it wants me to choose network NETGEAR98 or NETGEAR98-5G. Which one do i choose?

The first is a 2.4 GHz radio frequency Wi-Fi network. The second is 5 GHz. The 5 GHz is capable of higher speeds but it will have less range. Actual speeds may vary and may be limited by the speed of your Internet service. Your devices must support 5 GHz in order to use it.
