No 5GHz therefor no 802.11ac wifi

Can you access the Play store? Try to also check if you have at least one sim card in one of the slots. If you are using the sim to access internet, then you might have to disable mobile data on it first before trying out the wifi which is 2.4GHz only, therefor the Swift misses out on 5GHz Wi-Fi and, with it, 802.11ac support.

Glad to hear that your Swift was not at fault there. It's always assumed that the new device would be the one at fault for no connectivity, but one never asks if the old network is ready for the new device. :good:

Posting to an old thread with very little real information isn't going to get much help.

If your Wileyfox is a Swift (the original, not the Swift 2) and it's running Lineage OS, then a new post on this forum might get you some help, otherwise I suggest you find a more appropriate forum.

Given how quiet it is on here a generic Android forum might be better anyway?

Also you may find some if the advice in How To Ask Questions The Smart Way helps you get a useful answer. Sorry I can't post links but it's at http colon slash slash www dot catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
