Not so much in wireless throughput. It depends on what you are getting from you ISP. Under 500 mb/s it would make no difference. If you are paying for 1000 mb/s (Gigabit speed) it may get you closer to your top end speed but where you're going to get a big improvement with a wifi 6 (AX) router is in multi device streaming. If you have a lot of devices on your network streaming content at the same time or simply just a lot of devices in general (IoT bulbs, thermostats, sensors, cams etc...) wifi 6 is the way to go. If not it may not be worth the upgrade yet. There are more changes coming soon in consumer wifi devices and routers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
