So I’m planning on replacing my aging wifi 5 routers (three in my house) with wifi 6E routers, as I now have enough wireless devices that could take advantage of the upgraded speeds. I figured that I would also like to find wifi 6E routers that have 5gbs ethernet or faster outputs so I could also upgrade the NICs on my wired devices and one day increase the speed that my ISP offers, as due to my current wifi routers are preventing me from upgrading from my current 1gbs speeds.

Anyways, do any of you know of wifi 6E routers that have 5gbs or faster ethernet outputs?
All I can seem to find is one or two wifi 6E routers that offer 2.5gbs.

Thanks.

    Honestly you’re better off getting a non-wireless router and switch with sfp+ ports and back hauling them with 10gb transceivers, then just get a wifi6e AP. Microtik makes a real nice set of switches with dual sfp+ and multiple 2.5gbe ports.

    Negotiating 5 gigabits was widely skipped to 10gb, which has more support than even 2.5gb.

    Or skip learning what that all means and just get a wifi6e router with a 2.5gbe wan.
