Hi, I'm one of the contributors when Fing started on Startup and got the version 1. Very happy with Fing that today I got the version 2 of Fingbox.

My question is can I use both the old and new versions since the old one only covers 2.4G and the new one with 2.5 and 5 Gs.

If it can be done, Can someone share me the correct process?

Thank you very much.

Rey Gio

    @reygio349 , the two fingboxes are similar except for the addition of a 5Ghz band on the V2 and the indicator light change.  There would be little need to have both cover the SAME network.  Unless I'm missing another reason why you might want both?

    Hi Mark, thank you for your response. The reason why I bought the 2nd version because I set my three wifi devices to 5 Ghz and I'm using both version is because I have both.

    Was thinking if I can have the 1st version monitor my 2.4GHz signal and the 2nd version will monitor the 5GHz

    Ah, no need for that then, your covered with the v2.  Save the v1 in case you ever set up a second network or want to monitor a remote location.
