Hi! I just bought a Linsys dual band USB wireless adapter for my desktop PC (Windows 7.) My wireless network at home is set up through a Belkin N600 dual band router, and my laptop can connect to both bands effortlessly, however, my new adapter can't. Both signals are of equal strength according to the adapter (about -67dBm, which is good,) but if I try to connect to the 5GHz band, Windows immediately stops and tells me that it can't connect. When I run the troubleshooter, it tells me to "check if I'm in range of the network, and check that the connection settings match that of the router."

I double-checked the settings, and they are correct. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver, updating the router, and changing USB ports, but none of it worked.

What else can I try?
