Hi,
Because of heavy interference in the 2.5GHz range in my neighbourhood, I want to switch to wireless dual band (5GHZ) and wireless ac.
Do you have any suggestions for USB wireless adapters for CentOS 6.5 that work with dual band and ac?
Also, if you have any suggestions on wireless routers for these bands I would like to hear about them.
Thank you,
Joe

the netgear N600 family of routers work pretty well for 5.6Ghz .... I have a WNDR3700 here.
... but due note, 5.6ghz has less wall penetration, and shorter range than 2.4ghz
can't help you with usb wireless, all my centos systems are on ethernet, and my laptops all have integral wireless.
I think I have a WNDR3800 at home, it welcomed openwrt very easily. netgear's own firmware upgrade page accepts the bin files from openwrt's site! I was almost a little angry that I didn't have a reason to open the thing up.
