What is Wi-Fi 6 band?

But all Wi-Fi 6 routers will include a 2.4 GHz band that works with all existing clients on the market.

WiFi 6, also known as IEEE 802.11ax, is the newest WiFi specification standard, coming after WiFi 5 (IEEE 802.11ac). It promises greater speeds and better connectivity, as well as increased support for multiple, high-bandwidth devices. It operates between the 1 and 6 GHz frequency bands .

The IEEE 802.11ax standard is now referred to as Wi-Fi 6 or the 6th generation of Wi-Fi and operates the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Wi-Fi 6E operates in the 6 GHz frequency band.10 Kas 2020

Technically, WiFi 6 has better range than WiFi 5 because WiFi 5 only runs on the 5GHz band, while WiFi 6 is capable of running on both the 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands .
