• Handles more devices simultaneously through improved MU-MIMO technology, letting routers talk to 8 devices at once (vs 4 in WiFi 5)
• Reduces battery drain on connected devices through Target Wake Time (TWT), which lets devices sleep more efficiently
• Better performance in crowded areas like apartments or offices due to BSS Coloring, which reduces interference from neighboring networks
• Lower latency for gaming and real-time applications through OFDMA technology, which divides channels into smaller sub-channels
• Improved security with mandatory WPA3 encryption (optional in WiFi 5)
• Better beamforming capabilities to focus signals directly to devices instead of broadcasting in all directions
• 160MHz channel utilization (vs 80MHz in WiFi 5) for more efficient data transmission even when not at max speeds
Just get some refurb Eeros from Amazon (what I ended up doing) which are sorta close to this price point for a single unit, and you'll never have to think about your wifi again
(PS not an ad for them, just a longtime Eero user/fan)
Save yourself the headache
