It just hit me that all of what is now sold as WiFi 6 does not in fact have a 6 GHz radio. The incompetence is breathtaking, it's been a year since they revamped all of their naming and it's already fucked again.
It's just a coincidence that we're also talking about 6 GHz at the same time. No formal relation.
Think of it like 6.1 instead of 6E. Minor revision to the existing standard.
IEEE 802.11b --> Wi-Fi 2
IEEE 802.11a --> Wi-Fi 3
IEEE 802.11n --> Wi-Fi 4
IEEE 802.11ac --> Wi-Fi 5
IEEE 802.11ax --> Wi-Fi 6
IEEE 802.11ax in 6 GHz --> Wi-Fi 6E
IEEE 802.11be --> Wi-Fi 7
Has nothing todo with GHz frequency.
