Hi,
I'm very new to Ubuntu 18.04 (just dual-booted it on a Mac Pro 2015). Everything went smoothly, but now I'm not able to see my 5G band on the laptop. I can still see and use it when I boot into macOS. Also, the 2.4G band seems very unstable and keeps getting disconnected (the router is placed in another room, and it appears my connection is stable if I'm near it, but I never had this issue while on my macOS. It always gave me a stable connection even if I was in the other end of the house).
I did just quick searches, and then did sudo iwlist scan. It showed 32 channels, half of them 2.4G and half of them 5G, but only my 2.4G band was there. I couldn't find my 5G band.
iwlist channel gives the following:
None of the 5G channels are mine.
Sorry if this is a silly question, but I have no clue what to do, and would appreciate any help!
