HP Recommended
HP 250 15.6 inch G9 Notebook PC (511W4AV)

I've gone into Device Manager and Network Adapters, right-clicked Properties, Advanced, scrolled down the list to Preferred Band and 5gh First (and Enter/OK). I restarted the laptop but 2.4gh is still working...  The router is definitely 5gh enabled and the laptop is working OK with the router, but at a very slow speed. (i.e. c.60 when it should be c.500). 

Please advise how to 'force' the 5gh to be the correct speed.
