Bluetooth(R) [1x1]

Which of those is *both* 2.4GHz and 5GHz? How do I know?

Again No. 3 Looks like basic dual band being 1x1, not 2x2 or 3x3.

I'm still confused.

Number 3 is: "Intel 802.11ac WLAN and Bluetooth [1x1]".
So, what does that tell us?

Are we saying the "ac" is both 2.4GHz & 5GHz by virtue of the "a" in "ac"?
