What is the difference between two WiFi signals on a Tengda router

Feb 11,2025

Tengda routers usually have dual band capabilities and can simultaneously transmit WiFi signals from two different frequency bands. These two signals mainly differ in frequency, transmission rate, penetration ability, and applicable scenarios. 1. Frequency

2. 4GHz signal: Its frequency is relatively low and belongs to the common WiFi frequency band.

5GHz signal: With a relatively high frequency, it is a frequency band that has gradually become popular in recent years. 2. Transmission rate

2. 4GHz signal: Due to its low frequency, the data transmission rate is relatively slow. Under ideal conditions, its theoretical maximum speed is usually around 300Mbps, but in practical use it may be reduced due to environmental interference.

5GHz signal: higher frequency, faster data transmission rate. The 5GHz frequency band of modern dual band routers often provides transmission rates much higher than 2 or 4GHz, and some high-end routers can even reach several Gbps in the 5GHz frequency band. 3. Penetration ability

2. 4GHz signal: Due to its low frequency and long wavelength, it has good penetration ability. This means that 2 and 4GHz signals can more easily penetrate obstacles such as walls and floors, making them suitable for scenarios with high signal coverage requirements at home.

5GHz signal: Due to its high frequency and short wavelength, its penetration ability is relatively weak. When passing through walls or obstacles, the attenuation of 5GHz signals is more pronounced than that of 2 and 4GHz signals. 4. Applicable scenarios

2. 4GHz signal: more suitable for long-distance transmission and environments with many obstacles to penetrate. For example, when the distance between the router and the device is far, or there are many obstacles such as walls and furniture, choosing to connect 2 or 4GHz signals may be more stable.

5GHz signal: more suitable for scenarios where data is transmitted at high rates over close range. Due to its fast speed and minimal interference (compared to the 2 and 4GHz frequency bands), choosing to connect to a 5GHz signal can provide a better experience for applications with high bandwidth requirements such as high-definition video streaming playback, large file transfer, or online gaming. summary

The two WiFi signals of Tengda router each have advantages in frequency, transmission rate, penetration ability, and applicable scenarios. Users can choose the appropriate signal for connection according to their actual needs. For example, in open areas such as living rooms with high speed requirements, you can choose to connect to 5GHz signals; In scenarios such as bedrooms that require obstacle penetration and high stability, it is possible to choose to connect 2 or 4GHz signals. Some Tengda routers also support the "dual band integration" function, which can automatically select the optimal frequency band for connection based on device location and signal strength, thereby further enhancing the user experience.
