That doesn't change the frequency ranges in which the access points operate. 
It just means they can claim more than one channel. The channels are subsets 
of the overall range.

The b/g range is around 2.4 GHz, the a range is around 5.2 GHz. N supports 
both.

The band + the channel number = the effective frequency.
