A:Answer Hi, Yak, and thanks for asking about permanently connecting with 5 GHz Wifi. Yes, the printer should permanently connect to 5 GHz, provided there's bandwidth on the 5 GHz network. If you've got a lot of things connected on the 5 GHz network, it may be that the router is dropping the printer. So check for that, and if that's not the problem, download the latest drivers for the printer and see if that takes care of the problem.
