imunitar You may have come across advertisements by Comcast Xfinity touting their latest “Supersonic Wi-Fi” offering or 10G technology which got my curiosity around Wi 6E technology and so I researched its benefits against increased cost by Comcast.
This article will examine the technological capabilities and compare Wi-Fi 6E against previous generations such as Wi-Fi 6 and 5 technologies in order to help determine if upgrading to it would be worth its costs in your household. In addition, I’ll present you with some of the top Wi-Fi 6E routers and compatible modems currently for sale that could meet all your Wi-Fi speed needs at the best price point for your Wi-Fi needs in your household.
Note for readers: Xfinity currently charges $15/month ($180/year), as a modem/router rental fee, which they periodically increase – this is fairly standard among internet service providers nowadays. A lesser known secret is that replacing your Comcast Xfinity modem with your own can get rid of its modem rental fee and thus lower your bill significantly – particularly effective for those who find negotiations frustrating! Likewise if your ISP charges for modem rental fees you could take this approach – often paying back the difference within one or two years at most!
Let’s start this off by giving a brief overview of Wi-Fi 5 technology before moving onto Wi-Fi 6 and 6E.
