[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3248485, member: 43724"] Yes, lower frequencies drop off slower than higher frequencies, but carry less data. This is why you will typically see a max speed of 70 Mbits/sec on a 2.4 ghz network vs 360 Mbits/sec on a 5ghz network. The faster the frequency, the more data it can transmit in the same time frame. The only saving point is in my example the difference was 2.6 ghz while on cell phones it would only be 200 Mhz. I can see cell providers moving multiple 4g connections to the lower frequencies as it won't see much of a difference but will, as you said, travel farther for rural networks. [/QUOTE]
