Mixing Wifi 5 and 6

2020-11-24 20:31:42

Hi

I currently have 3 x Deco X60 that runs Wifi-6 - his covers my house very well.

I have a plan to extend my Wifi to a shed where I plan to keep my 3D printer. I do not want to by 3 additional X60 / X20, so I was considering bying 1 or 3 Deco M9 Plus. This is a Wifi 5 product.

My question is then how will it affect my XC60 Wifi 6 devices - if I mix it with Wifi 5 products?

@Rokke

It shouldn't affect you much at all. You are likely already using Wifi 5 clients on the network so the only difference is if you have any wifi 6 clients they would not get the performace boost that wifi 6 offers if they connect to the M9s.
