As I always request in these threads, I'd like someone to point me to a peer-reviewed paper that shows 5GHz being attenuated more by building materials than 2.4GHz.
The usual culprit is that people put their 5GHz networks on the old "low power channels", which nearly every router I've ever seen chooses by default. Half the power, half the signal in the next room, of course.

Choose channel 149 which is full-power.
