Hi.
I'm using XBian 1.0 RC 2 Gotham and it is fully updated.

I have a TP-LINK TL-WN725N WiFi USB Adapter.
The problem that i have is that i can't connect to my wifi network with N standard.
I have looked at a lots of threads and can't any find answer to my problem.

I can connect to my 2.4Ghz network but i want to use my 5Ghz wifi.
How can i make it possible to connect to my 5Ghz network?

Kernel = Linux xbian 3.12.7+

The WN725N is a 2.4Ghz receiver. TP-LINK

To connect to a 5Ghz wifi you will need to buy a 5Ghz receiver.

Possible solution: 2.4 & 5Ghz Not tested nor endorsed by Xbian.

Hi. Thanks for the answer.
It says that it can handle IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11n
So then i was thinking it shuld be using 5Ghz and not just 2.4Ghz

Nope: Check the specifications, it's only a 2.4Ghz receiver.

802b/g/n is 2.4Ghz
