HEADLINE: Make Wi-fi less aggressive about switching bands, and prefer 5ghz
DESCRIPTION:
For access points with 2 and 5ghz bands which are both weak my laptop will continually jump between them every few seconds. This makes for very poor connectivity, and if it just stuck with the 5ghz it would do fine.
If it preferred a 5ghz signal that would do wonders for connectivity too.

Wait, what? I wish my laptops did that at all. I always wondered why nobody ever figured "oh gee we have like 15% signal, do you think we should connect to this other 70% signal hotspot now that no TCP connections are open / no network traffic is active? Nah, let's just stick with the 15%, wouldn't want to drop the connection for a second."
