Is cellular faster than Wi-Fi?

The two frequencies that Wi-Fi uses are 2.4GHz and 5GHz. In simple terms, 2.4GHz has a lower potential top speed but penetrates better, so it has a longer range than the higher frequency , 5GHz, which can deliver faster speeds but doesn’t penetrate things like walls as easily.25 Şub 2021

According to a new report by OpenSignal, cellular network speeds have gotten faster and often greater than average Wi-Fi speeds . In 33 countries, smartphone users now experience faster average download speeds using a mobile (cellular) network than using Wi-Fi.

They have the same name and share similar technology, but they are not the same thing . To break it down simply, “5G Wifi” technically called 5GHz (gigahertz) is a frequency band and 5G cellular refers to the word “generation.” Wifi has two frequencies, 2.4 GHz and 5GHz.
