Re: Gen 1 Wi-Fi

@Dazzar51 Sky Glass Gen 1 is definitely WiFi 6 enabled, as are the Stream pucks. As long as your Glass TV is getting a strong enough signal, it will benefit from the increased number of concurrent devices on a WiFi 6 enabled access point. W

 

iFi 6 allows more devices to transmit/receive at the same time on a given router/access point compared to earlier WiFi standards. It doesn't increase the range or bandwidth compared to earlier WiFi standards though.
