The second is the wifi frequency of 5 GHz. Most modern wifi routers are dual
band and broadcast two wifi networks: one at 2.4GHz and the other at 5GHz.
The highest speed can be achieved on the 5GHz network by means of the
AC-wifi standard. The 2.4GHz network has the best range.
If you prefer, switching off 5GHz will reduce wifi radiation from the router even
more. You can do it from the JRS tab on the Wireless page. First set the Band
selector to 5 GHz, then set Enable Radio to No and click on Apply at the
bottom of the page.
Will the Eco router work correctly with my wifi connected doorbell / fire
detector / thermostat?
We can’t test with all of the multitude of wireless devices in the world,
therefore we can’t guarantee operation with all of them. Please take into
account that a wifi connected device like a doorbell, fire alarm or thermostat
will likely keep the Eco 100 router 'awake' all the time so the router cannot go
into the Full Eco standby mode. In such a case you will see the device listed
as ‘Connected now’ in the registration list on the JRS tab in the router settings
menu. Even when wifi is active, the router still offers a

that are not connected via wifi.
What happens when I turn off the wifi on the router using the wifi on/off button
or the scheduler, but leave the phone’s wifi on?
The phone may keep sending connection requests regularly when wifi is
enabled on the phone and no wifi network is currently connected, looking for
available wifi networks. It will therefore keep emitting wifi radiation in regular
intervals. Depending on make and model of your phone, and the settings, the
phone may or may not cease emitting wifi radiation in standby. When the
screen is off, the phone is not necessarily in standby! This depends on app
activity and on the OS settings.
If the last user leaves home with wifi on his phone switched on, stays away for
a few hours, then returns home without ever switching off wifi on the phone,
would that require him to perform an active action in order to reconnect to the
Eco router home network? Would he need to manually trigger reconnection by
opening the network list?
He doesn't need to open the network list. Just activating the screen on the
phone is enough. The phone will then transmit connection request signals that
the Eco router will receive which will trigger it to wake up. When a phone’s wifi
