You can find the wifi frequency in the network info window, click on the SSID in the wireless screen and it should show up. I think my issue is improving, it's gone from failing 5+ times in the space of an hour to 3 times in the past 12 hours. Unfortunately, I've discovered a new problem, this time with the Bluetooth. It connects and then immediately drops the connection in less than a second. Not sure why yet since it doesn't give any kind of an error, I'm going to test it more and see if I can figure out what is going wrong. I'm thinking I may have received a defective R5 but I don't want to believe that because otherwise I'm really loving this thing, it sounds so good.
Ah yes, I see it now, thanks.
Yup definitely 5Ghz.
Interestingly, when I tapped the SSID to open the details, it showed 5Ghz for a split second, then 2.4Ghz for another split second, then back to 5, then stays at 5.
I can't fathom why yours would be changing from very unstable to a lot more stable over time.
Sorry to hear about your bluetooth as well.
I don't think I've actually tried music via BT yet....
......just tried, and although pairing phone and R5 was easy I can't get the BT audio input service to work. it just keeps saying "Waiting for pairing. If you cannot connect, please repair. 0KHz"
On the R5, when I click on my phone in 'paired devices' I get a window offering check-boxes for:
Media audio
Internet access
Contact sharing
But the box for Media audio is greyed out and doesn't allow me to select it.
I also can't select "Internet access" so "contact sharing" is the only box which will accept a check-mark.
Does this description match any of the BT issues you describe?
I feel like my BT issues are possibly user error due to my ignorance of BT, and although the loss of the BT function would not be a deal breaker for me, I can see why it would for others.
I'll keep trying to get the BT to work, and will report back if I can.
If anyone can help us get our BT to work, please let me know where I'm going wrong.
