I have a new laptop with a built-in Intel card which supports 5GHz. The problem is that my older lappies won't connect so it's either get the dongles or go back to a slower rate. I tried 5GHz because my new laptop is a long way from the hub and I was getting a poor connection with some dropouts. 5GHz gives a firm connection and good speeds (although the latter are not way better than the default 2GHz). Channel 48 also recommended.
