Title: WiFi naming standards - now WiFi 5 and WiFi 6
Post by: Thorin on March 24, 2019, 11:39:22 AM
So I learned today that the wifi governing body has decided to do away with weird number/letter combinations and is going to a simple version number. 802.11ac became WiFi 5, the new 802.11ax became WiFi 6. I think this is a good idea.

Meanwhile the USB naming standards are having an identity crisis.
