In 2020, Wifi 6 revolutionized the Wifi game. Certified by the Wifi Alliance, Wifi 6 meant faster internet — speedy downloads, reliable streaming and accelerated load times. After Wifi 6E entered the game, a whole new standard of Wifi 6 was introduced. And now, with the newly released 6GHz bandwidth, you can say goodbye to interference, congestion and slowed network signals!

The Wifi 6E successor is yet to be released, but it promises to change the world of Wifi connections as we know. With promises of increased Wifi speed and stability, here's all you need to know about the upcoming Wifi 7. Although Wifi 6E has barely arrived yet, with the first Wifi 6 routers hitting the market in 2019, the industry is already gearing to introduce Wifi 7 — the next and improved generation of wireless networking technology. While we don't see Wifi 7 as a radical departure from the previous generations as it will continue to operate in 2.4, 5 and 6GHz frequency, it's bound to improve connection reliability and stability.

So you're noticing frequent fluctuations in your Wifi and slow internet speed, and you decide to turn the Wifi on and off again.

Wireless is the new normal for the world now. With the current advancements in wifi technology, the majority of us have left wires and cables in the past, and we solely rely on waves and signals to remain connected. However, can the same improvement be shown for Wifi security? Most of our wireless connections are protected by security protocols that were introduced in 2004 or earlier, which is 15-year-old technology. And unfortunately, many wireless routers being manufactured today are still backwards compatible with WEP, a security protocol introduced in 1999 and seriously susceptible to cyber hacks. So it seems in an era of rapid advancement and releases of newer technology, wifi security is lagging behind.

Customer churn rate, also simply known as churn, refers to the percentage of your customers that leave your service over a given period. The churn rate is also linked to another rate known as the retention rate: the percentage of customers who continue to purchase a given product from any given brand in a specific time frame. The two values are inversely proportional: the higher the retention rate, the lower the churn rate and vice versa. If customer loyalty rises, the number of customers who switch to other brands' competitors is bound to decrease.

A cloud gaming service uses cloud computing technology to deliver high-quality video games at a reasonable cost to users of gaming devices. In cloud gaming, video games are delivered to users over the Internet; video game data, including the video, audio, and graphics, is streamed to the user’s device through web browsers, mobile devices, and Smart TVs. Data is transmitted via the Internet, rather than being stored on a device locally. Cloud gaming allows gamers to access their games and other gaming related content through the internet. What this means is that players are not required to buy the games; all they need to do is pay a monthly subscription fee to access the content or other gaming related content.
