Spoilers: it won't: noisy neighbours, congested bands, and actual real world mean getting more than what we are already getting is next to impossible. Because basically those same factors are holding back even top speeds of wifi5, nevermind 6/6E
It’s not relevant anyway most people only have a gigabit as that’s more than enough for home users WiFi 6 and WiFi 6E are already great.
Internet connectivity isn't the only reason for faster networking speeds. A faster local wireless connection still has reasonable applications.
Not saying that I'll jump on board with upgrading all of my devices for the new annual wifi standard, but it's still cool that things are improving.
All my devices are already WiFi 6 compatible I really like beam forming my old router didn’t have this and I could tell the difference right away as I live in a apt speed and signal is way better.
