6ghz wifi doesn’t go very far, you’ll almost never see 25 6ghz connections.
At work I still get about 700 down with 25+ devices connected. There’s legitimately about 50 wifi connections despite being 30 floors up, but they’re all 2.4ghz which is worthless. Even 5ghz kinda sucks. But 6ghz? Rock solid.
The increase in frequency reduces signal penetration. Things like walls become major sources of signal attenuation. In open office plans, with no obstructive walls, no problem. In a house or apartment where you’re separated by multiple walls (and the materials/thickness those walls are made of) that can add up to significant signal loss.
I haven’t personally tried any 6GHz wifi technologies. Have you used it in any places where you’re separated by obstructions from the access point?
