So the simple answer to the simple question is....,!?
t
So on my 802.11ac dual CHANNEL 876mbps router
If I have 2 laptop clients with dual channel connecting to the router....
Does each one get two channels or just one
If just one... Then what happens when if I introduce a third laptop ?? How does that connect, ?
You have a simultaneous dual BAND router. A band is a set of frequencies, in this case around 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.
In each band, the router connects to client devices on one channel. All devices SHARE the channel. Sometime two or four channels are grouped together. But they together act as ONE channel.
So when you connect more devices, the router wireless bandwidth gets divided among the devices.
