    And if I look at the frequency spectrum I see that all my neighbours use 2.4GHz (9 are in channel 8) and I got the entire 5GHz spectrum to myself.

      Channel 8? I thought modern routers automatically select 1 6 and 11. That must be some ancient equipment around.

        Probably because for most people as long as it works it works and there’s no reason to upgrade.

          Sorry, but 9 networks on channel 8 can hardly be described as something “working”. I’d bet you barely get a 1mbps on that, and a crazy jitter and packet loss.
