Interference. There are a lot more devices operating at or near the 2.4GHz band than the 5GHz band.
Seriously, though, as long as you're able to connect and have a solid connection, you're unlikely to actually use the bandwidth afforded by 802.11n. I mean, it's not as if you're going to stream HD movies to your netbook, are you? Besides, if you don't have an 802.11n router, it's a somewhat moot point.
