Excellent 2.4GHz band adapter; 5GHz, not so much.

First day in the 5 GHz band. It has been running on the 2.4GHz band for a year without any problems (strong signal, no dropouts, maximum throughput, etc.). I have tried Windows 8 Pro, Windows 8.1 Pro and Windows 10 Pro to get the 5GHz band working to no avail. However, I installed the latest version of Ubuntu yesterday and it can use both tracks successfully. Unfortunately, Linux will never natively support the few applications I need to use on a daily basis. Damn.

Pros

Elegant design
