Hmm I forget how to tell which Extreme you have without looking at the model number.

So under wireless options on the wireless tab I see a checkbox for the name, that indicates that you can in fact have the 5Ghz band as a separate SSID, but it isn't the default. Using a tool like WiFi Analyzer on my phone shows all the bands across my two devices using the same name.

The past three iterations of the Airport Extreme should allow for both the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands to be ran on the same SSID. That is the default configuration. What version software is on your routers? My AC is 7.7.3 and my non-ac extreme (first gen dual band) is 7.6.4.

Yeah 26 for two core and 29 for single core.

Just a tip, when you see "no adapter found" you can go into device manager and scan for hardware changes. That will bring your WLAN adapter back with no need for a reboot.

Have you tried the rescan for device changes trick, instead of rebooting? I have lost my network devices a couple times (before the July Firmware) and scanning for hardware changes always brings it back with no reboots required.

If you look in Task Manager (Performance-> WiFi Tab) it will tell you what standard you are using (N, G, AC)

2 Apple Airport Extremes. One supports AC and the other only supports N. I have only ever connected using N, haven't bothered to figure out why.

I have the same version drivers with no issues. For what it is worth I believe the change logs states that MS is going to release some additional WiFi drivers on the 16th.

You can try either a refresh or a factory reset, if neither of those improves it I would take it to a MS store for a replacement, because that isn't normal.

Yeah, the only way I can tell is if I have stuff open on my desktop, it is still open when it wakes up from hibernation, not so much when it powers on from being shutdown.

Is it hibernating or actually shutting down?

Do you have Visual Studio installed by any chance? Or have Hyper-V installed?

I have an Apple Airport Extreme with AC support. Oddly enough I can't seem to get any of my AC compatible devices to connect at AC speeds. It could be due to me bridging my network with a non-AC compatible Airport Extreme.

I am loving my SPro3. Got it to replace a Samsung ATIV 500t. No real software or hardware issues to speak of. Digging the speediness and the larger screen size.

Some folks get the higher performance states by installing Hyper-V, which disables connected standby (InstantGO). I think there is a powercfg setting you can run that will allow you to use it as well.

No sir. In this case I am not seeing any actual performance problems. I was just curious if it is just me.

Hmm. I thought it was showing the maximum turbo boost with 2 cores active. Running the Intel benchmark doesn't change the maximum reading. Though the CPU does run faster.

Is it wrong for anyone else? It should read 2.6 GHz.

They have broken screens before when they are glued on.
