Improve Performance When You Upgrade Your Home Network to Wi-Fi 6

Searching for Faster Network Speeds? Wi-Fi 6 Could be the Solution.

Improve Performance When You Upgrade Your Home Network to Wi-Fi 6

If you've noticed slower streaming speeds when watching your favorite shows or find your voice commands operating with a delayed response, then it’s time to consider upgrading your home Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi 6 is the latest wireless iteration that’s available on the market today. Initially introduced in 2018, it has taken some time to popularize. Now that it's widely compatible with today's routers, smart home devices, and more, it’s time to reassess your current home Wi-Fi setup and determine if it’s time to upgrade.

There are many benefits to Wi-Fi 6, the most impressive being its ability to handle significantly more connected devices simultaneously. Continue reading to learn more about the benefits of Wi-Fi 6 and how upgrading your network could improve device performance in your Manhattan, NY, residence.

Supporting Many Devices

Wi-Fi 6 was designed to support homes that include several connected devices. The new protocol makes it an excellent option for powering smart homes that have alarm systems, lighting controls, climate controls, and more. Wi-Fi 6 can perform in a densely crowded network because it more efficiently distributes information. In addition, Wi-Fi 6 sends out messages to multiple devices simultaneously using a new type of wireless communications structure. This process differs from Wi-Fi 5 and prior versions that operated using a sequential response system.

Slow streaming is a common yet serious complaint from homeowners that love streaming services such as online gaming and Netflix. Buffering, stuttering, and freezing are all symptoms of an overwhelmed network, but with Wi-Fi 6 compatible routers, there are larger memory banks, faster processing capability, and more concurrent streams available to route information. 

Faster Speeds

If your home network struggles with upload and download speeds, then a home Wi-Fi upgrade can help. A device connected on Wi-Fi 6 can be as much as 40 percent faster than the same device streaming on Wi-Fi 5! This improvement means that multiple people and devices can operate without issue.
