The Linksys AE1000 can operate in either the 2.4GHz or 5 GHz frequency ranges that are available using the Wi Fi n standard. This user selectable option is ideal for avoiding interference from other devices like cell phones, remote controlled toys or microwave ovens that can be problematic for wireless networks. The 2.4 GHz range of channels is ideal for surfing the internet, keeping up with email and other interactions with the network that aren't particularly demanding from a data throughput perspective. This band also means that wireless n devices are backward compatible with older Wi Fi a, b and g devices, so they don't become obsolete as a result of technological advances.
