Wi-Fi 6, or IEEE 802.11ax, is an IEEE standard from the Wi-Fi Alliance, for wireless networks (WLANs). It operates in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, [9] with an extended version, Wi-Fi 6E, that adds the 6 GHz band. [10] It is an upgrade from Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), with improvements for better performance in crowded places.
Three key Wi-Fi 6 features -- multiuser multiple input, multiple output (MU-MIMO), orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) and dual-band support -- work together to widen the highway, redirect the flow of traffic and fundamentally change the rules of the road.
Searching for a router upgrade but unsure about whether you should go Wi-Fi 6 or splurge on 6E? We’ll break down the benefits and drawbacks of each.
While Wi-Fi 6e’s top throughput sticks to Wi-Fi 6’s 9.6Gbps throughput limit, you might actually get better overall performance by spreading the data out of its three bands to reduce...
Wi-Fi 6E is the name for devices that operate in the 6-gigahertz (GHz) band, a new swath of unlicensed spectrum. Until now, our Wi-Fi operated on two bands: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.
Introduction of Wi-Fi 6E: Wi-Fi 6E brings the 6 GHz band into play, providing faster speeds and less interference, making it an excellent option for future-proofing your Wi-Fi network. Introduced in 2019, Wi-Fi 6, also known as 802.11ax, is not just a step but a giant leap forward in wireless technology.
Is 6GHz Wi-Fi faster? Wi-Fi routers will soon start supporting these stronger connections, called Wi-Fi 6E. Here are the early details on their benefits and when they’ll be available.
