how can one tell if it's N?

How can you tell which version of WiFi is working? B,G, or n?

 

[Crimson]

I have both Wireless N and G and I am not sure how to tell which one its using.

Yeah that's weird because it could very well be g even though your router is N. Thing is, N is backward compatible with G. So how can you tell?

I haven't tried it yet but you can tell by putting your router on N only, instead of mixed G/N or mixed B/G/N.

Some routers, logging in and checking the stats will show you the frequency a device is using to connect in.

At least on my DLINK DGL-5400 GamerLounge router, it does.

disable all frequencies except N and then you'll know for sure.

The EVO is reporting a 65 Mbps connection for my access point, so it must be grabbing an N connection.

Holy geez you're right, wireless-N is working, at least thats what my router is telling me...

mine says 54, is that N?

802.11n isn't a frequency. N can work over 2.4 (just like G) or 5 GHz. The Evo doesn't have a 5GHz radio, so even if it's using N it's on the lower frequency.

 

[waydennis]

54 could still be G. 65 is not G.

Yep my router lists my EVO connected under "Mode" as "802.11n", so it's all good. Very cool Sprint/HTC.

Holy Snikies Batman! My wifi is going much faster, further from the router!

Just tested. Set my router to "N" only, and the Evo .....WAS ABLE TO CONNECT! Whoot!

Make sure your wireless router is on "N only" and not on "Mixed Mode". If on mixed mode, it will use a/b/g/n, but if on n only, will only look for n. EVO definitely does not work on 5GHz only on 2.4.

my router lists my phone as well in connected wifi devices as: 802.11n 2.4 Ghz mode
