Hi I recently got your wifi shield and connected to the board. Using your user manual the AT test works fine.

Using the demo CytronWiFiDemo,
I seem to have issues connecting with a 5G wifi network but managed to connect to a normal network, but I cannot connect to the ip that came out on the serial monitor.

Also the serial monitor shows
CODE: SELECT_ALL_CODE
Failed to connect to server.
although my computer can easily connect to adafruit.com, google.com etc.

Please help. Thanks

But still don't understand why I cannot connect to 5G wifi network.

5G? 5GHz? I don think that is possible with ESP8266 spec. ESP8266 is for 2.4GHz only.
