What is Wi-Fi 6E and how does it compare to Wi-Fi 6? Is it worth "upgrading"?

What's the difference between WiFi 6 and WiFi 6E?
For even more details, see the article here: www.digitalcitizen.life/wi-fi...

Nice comparison. Finally someone who has actually compared real life scenarios for Wi-Fi 6 vs 6e rather than just quoting from manufacturer marketing material. For the price, Wi-Fi 6 is the biggest bang for your buck.

Your tests with Wi-Fi 6 apparently use 160MHz channels, which can only be achieved on the 5GHz band using DFS channels, which are lost whenever your router detects a radar signal within range. If you make them 80MHz, which is the case for most Wi-Fi 6 systems, 6E (which uses 160MHz by default) will perform almost double the speed (relative to the same device at 5GHz band using 80MHz)

Great info in plain speak! Using an eero Pro 6E mesh system, what should be the max walls/disincentive between nodes be maintain the max wireless backhaul?

I spent the last 2 days chasing the rabbit hole thinking I should be able to see my Wifi 6GHz band with my wifi 6 computer. Thanks for the video upload as I was discovering all this and your video at the same time. I have my Wifi 6E PCI card on order and I'll be able to do a test for my situation to see. I think my main thing is just to be able to see the 6GHz Band SSID would be satisfactory to me at this point.

From what I've read you need to enable WPA 3 to enable the 6Ghz band on many routers. This will still allow compatibility with old Wi-Fi devices on b/g/n/ac, etc. but they won't be able to use 6 Ghz band obviously.

Nice video. I want to buy ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 PRO, the new 5.9Ghz router which uses the UNII-4 band. Do you happen to make a video about it :)?

I have a 2gb internet speed, I’m currently using WiFi 6 and I’m getting 2.3g speed wired and around 500mpbs on my wireless devices like tablets and phones. My wife phone is has a WiFi 6e so she gets around 800mbps. I mainly use the ethernet cable on my main Pc to download and upload from my UKposts channel. Question is, do I benefit from upgrading to wife 6e? I can still return my WiFi 6 but it would be around 250$ more extra to upgrade. And also my furthest internet connection which is outside the house I still get around 100mbps speed wireless.

There's a difference on latency? and how far are we on the same aspect compared to ethernet?

I have an odd question. Why do I get faster speeds on a 6Ghz mesh router then I do my main router that's only 5Ghz. To put it specifically, my main router is a ASUS AX-11000 Pro and I have an ASUS AXE-11000 router acting as an ai mesh node. So because my 6 GHz router is connected to a 5 GHz router wouldn't my connection be limited to the 5 GHz speeds? My speed test download on the ASUS router login page is giving me up to 1,400 Mbps or more download speed for Comcast.

I came looking for the answer to this question, is the deco 6e mesh compatible with the deco 6. Can these devices be integrated. Also finding so many smart devices that are only 2.4ghz compatible, which of these will no longer work on the 6e network. I always expect backwards compatibility but that isn’t always the case. I have a few Wemo switches that don’t work with my deco 6 mesh and if 6e has even less support for 2.4 and 5 then why bother? Seems like waiting for 7 to become more available and cost effective is better than upgrading to 6e. Thanks for the video!

I jumped on the Asus 16000 router. Since it is centrally located in my home i can take advantage of the 6ghz band for the highest priority devices. The rest of my mesh network is wifi 6 mesh routers.

Excellent explanation of pros and cons of 6 versus 6e. I'll stick with my 6 router as no real benefit with 6e.

Some people don't understand that 6ghz won't speed up your internet download speeds in most cases because it is your isp that meters it. For most cases it will only benifit streaming and multi-player game latency and you should get better speed at range (if the router has more broadcasting power) Another note being directly connected to your modem with a cat cable is still better than even a very expensive router while gaming

it is nice to take into account future upgrades. i live far away from big cities but already have 500mbps wan. but even then, do you really need such speeds on a mobile device? if you have big downloads or whatnot, just use a wired connection. im settling for wifi 6 and think i wont be upgrading before a loooooong time.

You have more of a chance of being affected by “dirty electricity” in your home than anything the router emits.

Thank you. For me, 6E, but with Inet 1.5 Gb Internet, even 3 and in the coming months 8 Gb fibre I really want future compatibility. Also, I'll want higher device counts as smart bulbs, plugs, power bars, home appliances, and all keep taking slots I want to be sure everything has an always on connectivity. Again, Thank You.
