Well, your card can operate in 5GHz band (frequencies). But I'm not
 really sure why you ask about this at all.

 If you want to try experimental BCM4331 support you have to:
 1) Install kernel 3.2-rc3 or newer
 or
 2) Install compat wireless

 After that you've do install firmware (check for wiki howto for kernel
 3.2 and newer).

P.S.
Please, don't top post.
