Does it work 5g wifi? null

I just checked my router which is a Netgear NightHawk R9000 - which is configured with both 2.4Ghz & 5 Ghz bands running under the same SSID with their Smart Connect feature. When I checked in Device Manager section of my router I see that it is connected to the router's 2.4Ghz band. I didn't have any trouble configuring or connecting it. Unlike, some other smart home devices. FYI: I have had problems setting up a couple of devices that specifically mentioned "2.4ghz band only" to the network with the router set to Smart Connect mode. In which case I just temporarily disable the Smart Connect (which splits the two bands into two SSIDs and adds a -5G to the end of SSID name of the 5ghz band) Then after I've completed the setup process on this "2.4ghz only devices" - I just re-enable Smart Connect and reboot the router! I haven't had any problems connecting to the network afterwards other then when initially configuring it. Seems like a bug in their configuration software of these two devices.

It turns your outlet on and off using Alexa. Has nothing to do with 5g.

Yes, I had 5g wireless Speed, (went back to 1T of Speed for the internet), when I set mine up. I did drop all cable channels & went with Amazon Firesticks instead, Plus I have about 5 plugs set in place around my home with Amazon Alexa, Just follow the instruction on the box, you will also need to take a photo of the app on plug box. Plus I have 3 echo 3gen makes life a whole lot easy to hook it all up together.
