Is anybody excited about Wi-Fi 6?

I'm just not seeing a compelling use case for many residential users to upgrade given the number of legacy devices that don't support this protocol. More importantly, the impending release of WiFi6e routers that open up 6 Ghz makes me want to wait even more... That is a huge potential bandwidth increase.




I am not excited, but I am happy that the 2.4ghz band finally got an update. 802.11n needed to catch up to ac.


Yep, not excited for Wifi6, i'll wait for wifi6e to upgrade. My AP-AC-HD works great.


5 GHz to 6 GHz is 6/5s faster bandwidth...
