Ah, good point, didn't thing to check with the AP. 24 total that it can clearly see, and a sniffer on my iPhone is showing 3 more with hidden SSIDs.

Clearly our experiences differ quite a bit on 5ghz. I'm seeing more then double the bandwidth, even with both 2.4 and 5ghz set to use "wide channels". 4 feet from my router, and my laptop barley can receive the full speed of my internet connection (it peaks at 67=68mbit). With 5ghz, I get more room to roam and remain at the peak speed I am paying for.

2.4ghz just simply doesn't have enough spectrum to allow for that many access points close by. 1, 6 and 11 are the only non overlapping channels available for use here in the US. 5ghz has 20 non overlapping channels available.
