Default How can we tell from a WiFi card spec whether the NIC is 2.4GHz or 5GHz, or both?

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"?


It tells me that HP marketing is clueless. The assumption is that
anything that does "ac" will also do the lesser protocol of "a". Since
"ac" only works on 5GHz, and nobody today makes a 5GHz only radio,
it's a fair assumption that anything with "ac" will be dual band.
However, that's an assumption. I tried to find the Intel card used in
the 15z and failed. You'll probably have to ask HP pre-sales, this I
predict will be clueless. You might try the HP support forums.
