Before the release of Wi-Fi 6, according to the naming standard of IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), the version of Wi-Fi protocol always adopted the naming format of "802.11"+English letters. In order to make it easier for users to identify, the Wi-Fi Alliance renamed the Wi-Fi protocol. Take 802. 1 1ax as an example, and simplify its name to Wi-Fi 6, which is more convenient for users to remember.

Compared with the previous Wi-Fi technology, the characteristics of Wi-Fi 6 provide better, more efficient and faster data transmission. Different from the previous generation of 802. 1 1ac(Wi-Fi 5), 802. 1 1ax(Wi-Fi 6) is not only suitable for Wi-Fi 5GHz band, but also suitable for Wi-Fi 2.4GHz band, which can be realized in the existing frequency band.
