Abstract
Many network devices initially connect to a network using a wireless frequency band that may not provide the best network performance. A wireless management module can determine that a network device, such as a mobile phone, is connected to the wireless network using an inferior wireless frequency band, for example, the 2.4 GHz wireless frequency band, even though a superior wireless frequency band, for example, the 5 GHz wireless frequency band is available or accessible. Based on a device setting, the wireless management module can automatically switch the mobile network device to the higher frequency wireless frequency band without requiring any user intervention. Additionally, or in the alternative, the wireless management module can prompt the user to allow switching to a different wireless frequency band. Switching to the higher frequency band improves network performance for the network device.
