Goodbye 802.11ac, 802.11ax, 802.11n, 802.11a/b/g/n and all that.

baquser2, 04 Oct 2018Of course not, Windows 7 is way better!Indeed 7 is the simplest form. They do have their own ups and downs. 10 do have their ups and downs too. But it looks better.

      wifi 6 is the same 2.4/5.0 and with higher bandwidth, I would rather see wifi with longer ranger, what we need the 802.11AF, it has super long range

        Finally

              It's going to be more confusing because when manuals and older equipment ask for ac which number is it?

                Windows 7 is objectively better than 8 and 10. Leaner, more straightforward, better performance, better and distinctive UI..

                  alright, i guess. the usual naming required a minute on wikipedia to figure out what's what, now you just need to not be numerically illiterate to know "what's better". or newer, at least. after all, "Wi-Fi 5" isn't necessarily better than "Wi-Fi 4", although "Wi-Fi 6" seems to consolidate and improve upon those two again, so i guess it won't matter

                    Of course the realization took decades. They are geeks! What do you expect from these people?
