Isn't wifi good enough for everyone already? I mean, it's great to have upgrades but pretty much nobody needs it
No. It's not good enough yet. I'd like to have wifi that doesn't instantly drop speeds if I'm not less than 2ft away from the router. Still waiting on that technology. Wifi will never be "good enough" until it's as good as ethernet.
And Wifi will never be as good as Ethernet assuming both standards continue to evolve.
The chad ethernet vs the virgin wifi.
Oh yeah? Tell me when they make Ethernet wireless /s
Wifi cannot ever be better than ethernet because all APs will use ethernet to connect out to other things.
But wifi 6 on my laptop can reach higher speeds than the ethernet port on my laptop. In that regard it actually is better.
True, but that's just your laptop. Ethernet can reach 25 gigabits far and away faster than any wifi.
