5ghz is shorter range than 2.4.
The Gnex has nothing to do with it.
I’ve updated my OP—please see it.Gonna keep bumping it until you get a higher 'No' than 'Yes' vote?
Even the Google reported issue has less than a 100 stars.
I got mine replaced by the Samsung Repair Centre. It took 1 month (ONE MONTH) to get it repaired.
Actually they sent me a brand new phone, as they didn't have another motherboard to replace the faulty one in the phone (to fix the 5GHz connection issue they have to replace the mainboard).
Now it connects, I hope it will continue to..
Argh, this is already a warranty replacement phone as it is for a flawed screen..... and the replacement I'm using is almost just as bad as my original, I just didn't want to have to bother calling them again.
My 5ghz just failed today. Woke up and it wouldn't connect at home or work. Tried another ROM, etc, same thing anyone else would try. It's just dead. I managed to connect to it once by sitting the phone directly on top of the router, but as soon as I just pick it up a few inches it drops.
Bumping this in the hopes that anyone's managed to fix this with a software solution. The hardware still PICKS UP my 5ghz networks, it just won't connect to them...
Doesn't work for me. Maybe changing the radio to a previous one (ICS) will fix it?
