In the 5 GHz WiFi band, there are typically **non-overlapping channels** available that can be used for WiFi connections. The most commonly referenced channels in the United States are:
- Channels 36, 40, 44, and 48 (low-band channels)
- Channels 149, 153, 157, and 161 (high-band channels)
In total, this gives us **8 non-overlapping channels** in the 5 GHz band. However, considering the possible choices given in your question, if you're asking for overlapping channels, the answer would be **0**, because the channels do not overlap in the same way that they do in the 2.4 GHz band.
So, the correct answer from the provided options is **0**.
- Channels 36, 40, 44, and 48 (low-band channels)
- Channels 149, 153, 157, and 161 (high-band channels)
In total, this gives us **8 non-overlapping channels** in the 5 GHz band. However, considering the possible choices given in your question, if you're asking for overlapping channels, the answer would be **0**, because the channels do not overlap in the same way that they do in the 2.4 GHz band.
So, the correct answer from the provided options is **0**.
