    New printer doesn't see the 5ghz WIFI band

    I am setting up a new printer and on the wizzard it see’s the 2.4ghz band but the 5ghz band is not populating.

    I am thinking it should pick it up as the printer is 802.11 b/g/n compatible.

    I am using a Linksys WRM 3200 ACM router.

          Very few printers have a 5GHz antenna. Most printers use the 2.4 GHz antenna to achieve wireless abilities.
