I have just bought a pay as you go version C6603 of the xperia z from 3. In the white paper it suggests that the WiFi works in the 2.4 and 5Ghz bands. I can only get it to work in the 2.4 band. Has anyone had any success in getting it to work in the 5Ghz band. Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
You must have a SIMCARD inside the cellphone to access 5ghz band.
No simcard = only 2.4ghz. I hope this solves most people problem!
3G simcard is fine, no need LTE/4G.
Cheers.
I have the c6603 from Asia, I am not seeing the 5ghz support either.
I only see 2.4ghz.
TP-LINK WDR-4300.
hy, i use the 5Ghz band on my wifi-lan.
fritzbox7390 and sony z
Hi abyss71
Could you tell what channel it was using in the 5Ghz band please. My router had access to 36,40,44 &48. Thanks
Put in simcard, restore factory default.
5GHZ should show now.
Thanks Studie. I have just retried the phone, now that the simcard has been put in, and it works. Thanks very much for your help.
where can I find 5GHz / 2.4GHz switch??
I cannot see it in wifi options on my Xperia Z
Can you give me a screenshot?
I use 5GHz on my Z without problem and I get a lot more stable and fast net with that. Probably because nona of my neighbours use 5GHz so it is empty there.
It just worked for me.
What is the reason a SIM-card is needed för that?
