main benefit for home use is that 6 ghz is uncongested, which is very very nice if living in a dense neighborhood.
and of course lightning fast wireless file transfers are possible on the LAN now, which could be beneficial to certain people.
- lazide 2y ago6ghz also has a lot of loss in typical building materials, which is relatively good in that there is a lot less inter building noise. It does require more repeaters though for any given network.
- aldonius 2y agoI think on net it works out - surely the average number of access points per network is less than 1.1
- zekica 2y agoTo anyone reading: please don't use repeaters. If you can, hard-wire all your wifi APs.
- k4rli 2y agoWhat's the reason not to? Would you prefer hardwiring to "mesh" as well? Obviously hardwire will always have better performance but the convenience and value should also be a consideration.
- lazide 2y agoNot who you are replying to, but more radio transmission and typically less reliability (you’re either using 2x the channels, or multiplexing on the same channel). In my experience, it can work but is often not nearly as good as you’d expect. Hardwired at the APs are way more reliable, and faster.
