I can barely find home devices that even support a 6ghz band. Why do we have these fancy routers if the receivers are capping out at 5ghz?

My iPhone can do 6ghz. But the AP can’t use it any full power and speed without phoning home to regulators every 24 hours so fuck it.

I should just run fiber all over my house.
