From my limited research, 5.0 is faster but at a much shorter distance than 2.4.

The one cable hookup in the house that actually gives my router internet is located in the dining room.

The Xbox is located in a bedroom upstairs and on the opposite side of the house.

Would 2.4 be better since it's so far from the router?

the human brain cannot even perceive the difference in lag from 2.4 to 5.0

I'll do a test when I get home - was playing online last night for the first time since moving in a couple months ago and had some pretty bad lag and didn't think about the 2.4 vs 5.0 thing til just now

It's not only distance but 5.0 I believe requires a clear signal to the device that you are using, so no walls TV's etc in between the two
