WiFi 5 mesh network fine for 910 FTTP?

Ping is important to me. I want the best ping I can get on WiFi and if upgrading from a WiFi 5 to 6 or 7 will improve it then I will consider it.
Then as stated, it shouldn’t be worse than what you have now, likely better.

Going to a bigger standard number won’t magically alter the underlying limitations, which is why I gave you real world examples of WiFi increasing ping locally by upto 64%. Moving a disc to the same room may help you if you haven’t done that yet and hard wiring backhaul if supported, but changing standard means you probably want to look at the hardware in the laptop to ensure both match in capabilities.

Also, what are you playing specifically, and on what laptop?
 
Hi all.

I have had a BT whole home WiFi 5 mesh network for years. In a couple of weeks I am finally getting FTTP installed and I have plumped for Openreach’s 910 down/105 up.

I have no issue with my BT whole home currently on a 65down/20up connection but will I start running into WiFi 5 limitations with my new FTTP?

It seems tri-band 6E and 7 are still really expensive but I’d be willing to upgrade if it’s going to be worth it.

I do play online games so ping is important to me.

Many thanks.
