WIFI 6 adapter?
There are plenty wifi 6 routers on the market, but why can't I find any wifi 6 usb adapter? Even wifi 6 adapters (PCI-E slot) are not many. Isn't it weird that you bought a powerful Netgear wifi 6 router but cannot find Netgear wifi 6 adapter? My 1.5-year-old Samsung Galaxy S10 can support wifi 6. When could I find a wifi 6 USB adapter to connect to my Nighthawk wifi 6 router? Thanks.

My 1.5-year-old Samsung Galaxy S10 can support wifi 6.----and it was literally the first consumer device to do so. So that's not saying much. When could I find a wifi 6 USB adapter to connect to my Nighthawk wifi 6 router? I haven't found one yet. If you have a laptop that needs it, you can replace the wireless chip in most of them. Intel has the AX200 or AX201. If its a desktop, they make pci-x adapters for those devices.
