Does anyone know if the S5 will be able to connect to the 5 Ghz band as well as the 2.4 Ghz band? Thanks.

Even if every announcement by Samsung says yes or no, that's no guarantee that marketing actually knows what engineering did. We'll have to wait for a hands-on from a unit bought from a retail channel.

Ok, thanks.

The S4 supports 5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac. Samsung's S5 page announces 802.11ac support and also 2 antennas for 2X2 MIMO.

So, yes, the S5 supports 5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac.
