Hi @jenk31979

Assuming you mean a 5GHz WiFi connection then according to the laptop specifications, the WLAN card (WiFi) in the laptop is designed for 2.4GHz networks only i.e. 802.11 b/g/n specs.

To get it to work on a 5GHz network you would have to upgrade the WLAN card to one having 802.11ac specifications i.e. both 2.4GHz and 5Ghz

Here's an image taken from the ifixit Toshiba Satellite L505 Laptop Motherboard Replacement guide, showing the location of the WLAN card (it has the two antenna leads plugged into it)

Thank you for the detailed instructions, I appreciate the attention to detail. I'm just not sure that's something I feel comfortable doing myself. Honestly I was hoping for a quick work around for now, until I can take it to my computer guy in the States... But thank you

@jenk31979 depending on where you live there could be someone near where you live to do it for you :)

@jenk31979

Quick bypass is to get a USB2.0 5GHz WiFi dongle (example only) and plug that into the laptop use that
