Hi, your 5ghz connection is probably slow because you probably saturate your internet connection completely when your downloading on the 2.4ghz.

What is your maximum internet connection speed for download/upload and what was your download speed at the time?

Just throwing out ideas to try to help you since my WNDR3700v1 5 ghz connection isn't slow at all when I'm just using the internet regularly. I also have QOS turned on so that this situation doesn't happen.
