Wi-Fi 6 is the next generation of Wi-Fi based technology! It fights network congestion to provide faster more effective connection. Also, it arms mobile device’s and laptop’s with longer battery life. It’s different than older Wi-Fi versions in that it transforms the framework of connection rather than just delivers faster speed. The Wi-Fi 6 technology allows an access point to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously, rather than transmitting to one device at a time. This technology not only minimizes congestion in high density scenarios but also institutes faster network connection. As if this isn’t amazing enough, wi-fi 6 has “Target Wake Time” (TWT) to help battery life.

With Wi-Fi 6’s “Target Wake Time”, access points are able to configure whether devices should be in sleep mode or wake mode. This assists in conserving power and boosts the access point’s ability to spend more time in sleep mode. With “Target Wake Time” you can guarantee longer battery life long-term.

Future technology will be linked with Wi-Fi 6 organically.
Questions:
Does a Wi-Fi 6 enabled laptop need to be connected to a Wi-Fi 6 access point to reap the benefits of the new Wi-Fi technology? Will a Wi-Fi 6 enabled laptop deliver faster speed if linked with a wi-fi 5 access point?
