I have dd-wrt firmware installed on a dual band router (Cisco\Linksys e2500). I have it set so that the wireless is running on "G Only".

My question is if anyone has actually tested with an RF detector if the 5ghz band is not transmitting any signal whatsoever? while on this setting.

I am asking because of a unique environment/electronics that I have setup nearby that need to be free of as many 5ghz+ signals as possible.

My RF detector only detects anything below 5ghz so I cannot test this, hoping by chance someone has this and can test it out.

The 5GHz on the E2500 does nothing with dd-wrt firmware.
It has NO drivers to run.

I use "Wifi Network Analyzer" on my phone to check router channels. Works Well. Google Play Store.
