See attached screenshot (below) for info. I've tweaked and tweaked and tweaked settings of several different Broadcom drivers but have experienced no change other than at one point not being able to see my network at all! None of the drivers I've tried have the supposed "5Ghz preferred band" setting in advanced properties. I've read every guide I could find and have tried uninstalling and reinstalling sooo many Broadcom drivers to no avail (though this DID cause the name of the device in device manager to change to ".Full Dongle Adapter #8" at one point though now it's "#3"? might need some help with cleaning up the registry as reinstalling does not fix this naming convention). Please can somebody point me to the correct driver so I can enjoy the speeds I've paid for. When connecting over WiFi, my other mobile devices easily reach speeds of just over 300 mb/s whereas my Macbook does not even reach 100 mb/s in the same locations.
I have a fibre optics plan and have been extremely frustrated by this driver induced bottleneck. The 2.4Ghz connection is consistent and quite stable except for certain areas of the house where a 5Ghz signal would be optimal. I am running Windows 7 64 bit on my Macbook Pro 13'' 2015 and have experimented with numerous drivers but am unable to find one that enables me to connect to the 5Ghz band on my router.
