bro i am talking about wifi connection to a 5ghz router not mobile connection, regular 5Ghz networks does not.show in the wifi scans.so i have have to connect to regular 2.4 ghz connections. i need 5ghz because i need the speed, i need it for fileshare and for other things and connecting transfer files between devices are also slow unless i connect via wifi direct which disconnects me from thd internet unless i use mobe data which has cell phone carrier charges so it is just weird that 5ghz connections cannot be discovered via scans or any other ways. it is a software issure which i hope is the case becaude otherwise it js just stupid and males me angry.

bro but the 5 GHz wifi should be able to connect by default to your device

5g range is less than 2gh. try connecting near your router.

no solution but sometimes it shows up when you scan for a repeatedly few times but i have recently discovered that changing my 5ghz channel to 149 helped. now i can connect to my 5ghz network and it also shows up in the scan but if i change the channel then it doesnt show up. btw this phone does not connect to 5Ghz wifi by default, it uses 40mhz frequency to boost up the speed but it doesnt help as much because the speed isnt stable it keeps going up and down. with low signal below 75 db it stops working which is very bad. other devices dont have the same problem.
