Slow Wi-Fi is usually a router problem, not an internet problem. We compare Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E routers, mesh systems and range extenders on coverage, real throughput, app quality and firmware support, using owner reviews from apartments and multi-story homes across the US.

A single router covers an apartment or small house; a two- or three-node mesh is the fix for larger homes and dead zones.
