What is the difference between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless frequencies?

The primary differences between the two frequencies are the range (coverage) and bandwidth (speed) that the bands provide. The 2.4 GHz band provides coverage at a longer range but transmits data at slower speeds. The 5 GHz band provides less coverage but transmits data at faster speeds.


In simple words
  • 5Ghz wifi is high speed as well as low area covering because of shorter wavelength
  • 2.5Ghz wifi is less speed and more area covered because of low frequency than 5 ghz .

How to format a USB drive to FAT32 on a Mac

How to format a USB drive to FAT32 on a Mac

Formatting would erase data completely, make sure that you have a data backup.

You want to be able to use the drive on a Windows PC, as well as a Mac — perhaps to transfer files between the two machines.
.
The fact that Fat32 can be read from and written to on both Mac and Windows makes it very versatile. However, there is a significant limitation — individual files have a maximum size of 4GB. So, if you’re using the USB drive to store large video files, you may run into trouble. There is a solution, however, exFAT. Unlike FAT32, exFAT doesn’t have a maximum file limit. Better still, it can be read from and written to on any Mac running Mac OS X Snow Leopard or later and on Windows.

To format a USB drive in FAT32 or exFAT:

1. Plug the USB drive into your Mac.
2. Go to Applications>Utilities and launch Disk Utility.
3. Click on the USB drive in the sidebar in Disk Utility.
4. Click Erase in the Disk Utility toolbar.
5. Type in a name for the formatted disk.
6. Click on the Format menu and choose either MS-DOS (FAT32) or ExFAT.
7. Click Erase.
