      @Conor of course no one has used the term "wifi 5" before; it had a much less useful name before. Because a b g n ac makes so much sense in your mind, right?
      Did you spend New Year's day telling people not to say that the year is 2019, because previously people were saying that the year is 2018?
      If you want to claim that no one should rename prior protocols, you'd have a point - if the prior convention made sense and if the new convention doesn't (ie, the USB Consortium idiots). But the new convention is pretty backwards compatible because it keeps the correct order and number of generations. And, new devices will be made at the old standard because they are cheaper to make, and there's no reason to have g, n, ac, and 6 all on the shelf when they can be labelled 3, 4, 5, 6. Otherwise, you'll need to find a different and inevitably-stupid name for gen6 and explain that the order of the lettered generations are the 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation in not-quite alphabetical order (ac messes that up). And at that point you've just given them the same numbers that the new convention uses.

      Seems good! I have so Many mobile and Wi-Fi devices that a standard that can service Many of them at higher speed is good. If there is just one or two of them the ac aka Wi-Fi 5 is just fine. But if all of them Are using Wi-Fi at the same time there is quite a big drop. If this actually make situation better in the future... that is good!
      I would like to see a mixed test with Wi-Fi 4, Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 devices Connected to same node and see how They would behave during simultaneous tress testing! Does the older devices hamper the speed of Wi-Fi 6 devices? Doe the use of Wi-Fi 6 devices leave more room to older standardi to breath? Or does a couple of old devices hinder Also the new wifi6 devices so badly that moving to Wi-Fi 6 is not usefull unles most devices Are Wi-Fi 6. That could means a long way to future. But if all those different devices works nicely together and you get benefits, I could move to Wi-Fi 6 router very soon. So a mixed test is definitely hoped for!

      WPA3 is not looking that good really. Check out the latest news on a vulnerability called "dragonblood" that affects this new protocol. But more importantly, check out what the security researchers say about the way this protocol was designed. I don't think WPA3 is going to be that good, because the fundamentals seem to be questionable to say it in some way and now they cannot change that. They will throw patches at it every time a new vulnerability is disclosed and we will all be using a broken protocol most of the time cause updates won't reach everyone fast enough.
