So I’ve had a regular steam deck since launch, and I’ve never dealt with the 5ghz WiFi issue. Yesterday I got my new oled model, and it refuses to connect to the 5ghz WiFi. It works with the 2.4, but not the 5. I’ve tried the power save setting, and still no luck. I really don’t want to send it back, but the download speed on the 2.4 is horrendous. Any ideas how to fix this easily?
It might be a setting with your router. I’m having issues with 5G (connects but keeps saying “can’t connect to servers”.) The 2.4 is downloading at 130mb, so that seems fine for now. Turning off power setting did not help me either. Leaving my router alone though, since have a lot of other devices on 5G and don’t want to maybe fix the Deck, but screw everything else up.
