Wow. I honestly weren't expecting them to actually implement that correctly.
Bravo. This new Shrub is not only a serious improvement but actually looks professionally done as well, rather than an amateur box-ticking botch job like the last one...

You see all those transmitters outside that are on masts?
See any TV or mobile transmitters lying flat on the ground?
See all those hundreds of businesses with professionally installed wireless networks where they are all attached high on walls or the ceiling? Seen any who installed their wifi access points on the floor?

Of the 72 wireless connections I can pick up with a scan there's 1 on the 5GHz band.-ME!

Sure, last time I did a "drive test" I found out of 380 Superhubs, all but one were on 2.4Ghz. However since consumer grade 5Ghz signals don't travel as far, that's not an entirely fair comparison.
Personally I'm still surprised when I see professionally installed wireless networks (hotspots, hotels, airports, etc.) that use 5Ghz, even then they are still extremely rare. There's only three I know of in Edinburgh. Two belong to universities.
