I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz.

I'm not really sure there is a way to tell, it certainly doesn't seem to be something you can set within the iPad so I'd assume that if a 5Ghz frequency is available it would use that, otherwise it would default to using a 2.4Ghz frequency instead. I'd also assume from having a 5Ghz router myself that there would be some sort of light on your router which will flash on/off when data is recieved so if iPad is your only 5Ghz device and it's sending/receiving data then this light should flash on your router.

Go into your router configuration and give the 2.4 Ghz a different SSID than the 5 Ghz. When your iPad connects you can tell from the name which frequency is being used.

Danm, wish I'd have been at my router to have thought of that, of course lol. Nice one Ray.
