what does dual band mean in a router/modem? null

Dual-band routers broadcast on two different frequencies: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Currently, 2.4 GHz is oversaturated with devices. That's because almost every smartphone, tablet and laptop uses either Wireless-G or Wireless-N to connect to receive Internet.

"Dual band" means that it works on wireless LAN networks that use both the older 2.4 GHz (IEEE 802.11b/g) and newer 5.8 GHz (IEEE 8-2.11n) frequency bands.

Dual band means you can use two different RF frequency bands.
