Congestion free = Faster internet experience

At 5.4Gbps combined bandwidth, our new WiFi 6 devices and routers are like 10-lane highways. They can cater to all “cars” (devices like mobile phones/tablets/laptops etc.) at once, regardless of capabilities. This allows content to be delivered efficiently, with minimal lag

Heavy traffic = Slower internet experience that lags 

Other providers generally bundle entry-level WiFi 6 devices (for their 1Gbps plans) that only run at 1.8Gbps combined bandwidth. These are like narrower highways compared to ours. Even faster “cars” then have to queue with all the other devices, waiting to reach its destination
