Recent reports show that Xiaomi’s first Wi-Fi 6 router with 7 antennas will go on sale today and it will be available for 599 yuan ($85). The Xiaomi router AX3600 is currently in stock and it is an AIoT Router. WiFi 6 is the new generation of WiFi standards. Compared with the previous generation, WiFi 5, the transmission rate, signal coverage, and data delay are much better. When users connect multiple terminal devices,  the WiFi 6 router can significantly reduce the number of terminals and performs as though it is dealing with a single equipment.
