Thank you for having us David, this was a great discussion and we really enjoyed coming on the show!

I love David questions to all his guests because even though it's obvious he already knows the answers, he makes them anyway for the average viewer, who probably won't. This makes his videos extremely friendly and didactic.

Some clarifications here as what is said @19:36 for WiFi 6 is not true: WiFi 6 operates on 2.4GHz and 5Ghz but NOT at 6GHz (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_6). This is WiFi 6E that adds the 6GHz band and WiFi 7 is able to use the 3 bands together to even higher throughput.

Great video! Thanks! One thing about bands sometimes is not considered is long range and wall penetration. All the great things of 5 & 6 GHz can become meaningless if you can't connect to them. Extending that bands could be expensive for a home user depending on the situation. But 2.4 can reach when other bands can't (in a home scenario). So, I think is still relevant for reach and "wall penetration". It depends of the construction methods used on the country, but many countries have "solid walls" construction methods that prevent WiFi to reach, and you need to extend the WiFi network, except in many cases 2.4, that can reach anyway.

Speaking as someone in the process of upgrading his home network, I really appreciate this video!

Really enjoy these in depth topics! Thank you <3

For home, one could run an isolated subnet for legacy devices, while bolting in newer tech

Really good, technical conversation.

Happy to hear more from them

Quite easy to follow even at ccna level. Great video!

It's such a new thing for me.. Perfectoo keep it up bro :)

I use WPA2 for my wifi because some of our devices that connect to it may not support WPA3 as you mentioned.

Let me say David you are a great mentor for me and this question is for my own learning purposes so any guidance you could give is appreciated. Have all the vulnerabilities been patched in WPA3, I thought the Dragonsblood vulnerability needed the complete rework of the protocol? And it wasn't just one there were multiples. Did they all get solved? The WiFi Alliance was a ........slow to comment about the issues.

Thank you sir for this informative video.

Hey David great work..i had a question regarding an OS..

Great talk but I'm a little disappointed you didn't ask how to prevent downgrade attacks. Right now all I got is network segmentation and trying to force WPA 3 on a separate network.

You did dirty to the OGs WRT. That's some good router there if you use openwrt, after all these years relative good performance or good as an AP.

Great video man❤

Perfect timing as I'm overhauling my wired and wireless network at home. Just got my ubiquiti wifi7 AP's in, even though nothing I have currently uses that (yet). This is gonna be a treat
