Wi-Fi Sixth Generation Wi-Fi 802.11ax

Sixth-generation Wi-Fi 802.11ax or Wi-Fi 6e is currently the accepted standard. Wi-Fi 6 is much better at dense, congested networks (with a large number of client devices) and support for faster top speeds, and Wi-Fi 6 is already used in most of the latest smartphones and laptops.

The new version has something called Wi-Fi 6E. It is not a new version of the Wi-Fi protocol like Wi-Fi 6, but a special name for Wi-Fi 6 devices equipped with broadcasts in the newly opened 6GHz band, something that routers could not do before.

RTL8832AU AX1800M – WiFi6 vs WiFi5 vs WiFi4

 

This 6GHz band is more than double the 5GHz band below it and has enough bandwidth for up to seven non-overlapping 160MHz channels. In layman’s terms, if the 2.4GHz band is a single-lane country road, and the 5GHz band is a three-lane interstate, think of the 6GHz band as a brand new seven-lane highway with only 6E devices having access to the entrance.

About WiFi6 technology products

The Asus ROG Rapture GT-AXE11000, and the Netgear Nighthawk RAXE500. They are two of the first Wi-Fi 6E routers released this year, and I’ve been busy testing them after being busy with speed tests.

 

Both the 5GHz and 6GHz bands have top speeds of up to 4,800Mbps — 4.8 gigabits per second (Asus says the GT-AXE11000’s 6GHz band is even higher, up to over 5 gigabits).

Netgear writes in its RAXE500 (PDF) datasheet: “The 6 GHz band brings lower latency to your AR/VR gaming and other Wi-Fi intensive applications. ”

With Netgear, these numbers are 19.4ms at 2.4GHz, 19.1ms at 5GHz, and 19.2ms at 6GHz. In other words, for ordinary network traffic, you are unlikely to notice a difference in latency between individual frequency bands.

Admittedly, this can change with bandwidth-intensive network usage or servers that are far away from the servers I’ve tested.

I used a nearby server during my speed test to keep latency variables to a minimum, so I needed to run a brand new server with a remote server to better understand what 6GHz was capable of.

6E devices take full advantage of Wi-Fi 6’s capabilities, especially in congested networks where many devices would otherwise need to share a lane.

For example, establishing a 6GHz connection near a stadium or airport.
