DECO XE75 WI-FI 6E MESH add something to my MESH to get me WI-FI 6 as well
Looking for a way to add a WI-FI 6 signal to my mesh, could it be a DECO X68 MESH unit, or a router?, will it work and how do I set it up, in wich order should the units connect etc, I am very happy with my XE75 setup (4 nods) just missing WI-FI 6.
Thanks

@MikeM123 oh sorry I confused myself. The regular 2.4GHz and 5Ghz network are already Wifi 6 capable you just need to connect your device to them and they will take advantage of the wifi 6 speed. If you want to force a device to use the 5GHz band you can do that in the app by clicking on the device and choosing connection preference. That will let you choose which wifi bands you want the router assign to the device. 6GHz is only a WIFI6E feature and devices would need to support it out of the box to take advantage of it.

@MikeM123 The XE75 support Wifi 6 out of the box. You just need to enable the 6GHz wifi channel in the app setting or web interface.

I have it enabled but it is only WI-FI 6E as I understand it, I have devices that "only" can connect to WI-FI 6 and they go for the 5GHz channel?
any suggestions
Thanks

Thanks for staying with me I was able to get confused because 2.4 & 5 GHz have the same SSID and from there down hill for me.
Now I am good again,
Thanks
