Am about to move houses and new place will have 1000/1000 speeds. Wondering if I should get a Wifi 6 router or not, is it worth the upgrade? Can Wifi 5 and 6 equipment be combined? Or will it then all be ‘downgraded’ to Wifi 5?

Usecase: At home - with 8 or so devices.

Anyway, let me know your experiences with WiFi 6 and wether I should aim to get it.

    I’d gamble it’s a combination of both. WiFi 5 seems pretty bad on ISP-supplied routers, but performs well on higher-end routers but at the same time, I’ve seen quite the performance boost moving from Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO to U6 Pro.
