Covering large and multi-storey apartments and offices/buildings with Wi-Fi has been a rather difficult task, which is exacerbated by the fact that the number of wirelessly connected devices has increased significantly since the advent of the technology in the last century. One cure for home or office radio blind spots or slow transmissions caused by poor signal strength is a mesh Wi-Fi system, which some ISPs have long been offering to their customers for their own well-considered interests.
Magyar Telekom announced on Tuesday that it has made available to its subscribers the first mesh devices that now belong to the Wi-Fi 6E generation (which is still based on the 802.11ax standard introduced in 2019). These devices differ mainly from the previous generation in that, in addition to 2.4 and 5 GHz, the 6 GHz band is also used to transmit radio signals – provided that it is also supported by client-side devices.

His company picks it, but just like bacon sugar, it’s usually in season now. We discussed a current topic on the 22nd Kraftie podcast.
As a result, Wi-Fi 6E radio networks can communicate over much larger 160MHz channels (instead of two) than before, meaning interference can be largely eliminated not only in crowded urban environments, but also in urban environments. The other. Networks operating in the 5 GHz band also relate to continuous operation for civil use (meteorological radars and civil air traffic systems).
The new Wi-Fi 6E enabled mesh access point from Telekom is supplied by the company’s former partner, Kaonmedia, and 2-4 AR1840 devices can be ordered from the service provider in monthly installments for 24 months, exclusively for customers subscribing to optical Internet access with an offer Bandwidth 2 Gbps.
The Kaon AR1840 can build up to 4800Mbps connection speed with customers, but the 2.5Gbit wired connection bandwidth between the Telekom-supplied home router and the mesh device may be the bottleneck.
