Staying true to its brand ethos of delivering ‘The Future. Today.’, Dialog Axiata PLC, Sri Lanka’s premier connectivity provider, introduced ‘WiFi 6’ - the next-gen standard in Wi-Fi technology for the first time in Sri Lanka.
With most homes having significantly more Wi-Fi-enabled devices, from smartphones, tablets to TVs and smart home devices, which require seamless connectivity, WiFi 6 enables better communication between these multiple devices, which require data simultaneously at faster speeds and lower latency along with wider coverage. 


WiFi 6 will enable devices to work in an optimal manner even in interference zones (i.e. multiple Wi-Fi networks), where the beam forwarding feature of this technology provides overall superior Wi-Fi experience, due to the Wi-Fi signal only targeting WiFi 6-enabled devices.

 
WiFi 6 is a substantial upgrade over previous generations and introduces new technologies to help mitigate issues that arise when using multiple Wi-Fi devices on a single network, keeping connections strong even as more and more devices start demanding data. Further, the lower latency enabled by WiFi 6 technology provides the best gaming and streaming experience. Dialog Smart Home recently launched the WiFi 6-enabled ‘Wi-Fi Mesh’, a holistic and highly-secure home Wi-Fi system designed to boost Wi-Fi connectivity to every corner of the home, thereby eliminating low-coverage blind spots. 

This is the latest addition to its portfolio of future-ready solutions and addressing the need for seamless, uninterrupted connectivity.
