200
What is the latest wireless frequency band?
The 6 GHz standard
This standard is even less effective at penetrating solid surfaces than the 5 GHz band, so therefore does not achieve the longer ranges of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. However, it is much faster than both of the other bands. Since this is a newer band, there is typically less congestion, which results in a more stable and reliable connection.
