While it already is a very deep discussion, like most it does not discuss the latency improvement that 6 GHz Wi-Fi brings. Afaik Wi-Fi 6E 6 GHz has a latency of 5 ms and less, while Wi-Fi 6 comes with about 10 ms at 5 GHz.
- martinald 4mo agoNot sure if that's true really - its just 6GHz is a lot less congested in general (for now).
- jhoho 4mo agoI struggle to find good resources on this topic. The few I found indeed attribute the lower latency of more recent Wi-Fi generations to techniques like MLA and OFDMA, not necessarily the frequency (which makes sense, of course). The cudy link makes it look like channel congestion is a factor, too. https://www.rtings.com/router/learn/research/wireless-latency https://www.rtings.com/router/learn/research/wireless-latenc... https://www.zbtwifi.com/blogs/frontier-technology-news/wi-fi-7-vs-wi-fi-6e-real-world-performance-comparison https://www.zbtwifi.com/blogs/frontier-technology-news/wi-fi... https://www.cudy.com/en-benelux/blogs/news/6-ghz-vs-5-ghz-the-clear-winner-for-online-gaming https://www.cudy.com/en-benelux/blogs/news/6-ghz-vs-5-ghz-th...
