The primary objective of 802.11ax AKA Wi-Fi 6 is to make sure that Wi-Fi devices use RF spectrum more efficiently. RF spectrum is a very precious resource and we need to make sure that it gets used effectively and efficiently. 802.11 ax is also called as high-efficiency Wi-Fi standard. This is a big paradigm shiftRead more about 802.11ax AKA Wi-Fi 6[…]
