No 5Ghz Wlan available on the RPI3 B+ with OSMC

Can anyone tell me what I have to do to have my 5Ghz WLAN configured in OSMC. I can only see 2,4Ghz. In my fritz box 6600 I have to SSIDs one for 2,4 and the other one for 5,4Ghz.

When trying to search for new Networks it cannot see 5Ghz. Do I have to configure something over the terminal? The hardware is a rpi3 b+

Are you German?

If so, you probably need to set a CRDA.

Inhaber done that now but still cannot see my second SSID Wlan with 5Ghz

Is there any recommendation how to get 5Ghz Wlan running on rpi3 with the latest OSMC Software???

Which Channels are you using? Maybe try to set lower channel on the router for testing.

Configured „auto“

Yeah and currently above (equal to) 100, try changing it to 44

Can you tell me why it’s not working with auto and 100?

Well does it work with the channel below? If yes then we need to investigate why it is not working above 100. If it still is not working even if changed to channel 44 then we have to look at different topic.

Changed to channel 44 but still no 5Ghz Wlan.

Sure it is a rpi3 B+ and not rpi3 B? Try

cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model

osmc@Kodi:~$ cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2osmc@Kodi:~$

I think this is the rpi 3B … which only has 100 mbit ethernet … and 2.4 GHz wifi, only, see Raspberry Pi – Wikipedia

My rpi 3B+ shows

# cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Plus Rev 1.

Yes you are totally right it only has 2,4Ghz. It‘s not a Plus Model so it’s not possible to use 5Ghz.

Thx a lot for your help!!! :slight_smile:
