D-Link Canada today announced the availability of the AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 USB Adapter (DWA-X1850), the world’s first available Wi-Fi 6 USB adapter.
With the ongoing global pandemic, the demand on the Canadian home network is greater than ever before. Work from home, video meetings, and virtual classes have all taken their toll with increased network congestion and increased data traffic. And despite the pandemic winding down to some degree, a lot of these “new norms” are here to stay. D-Link’s new Wi-Fi 6 solution offers Canadian’s a way to easily upgrade their laptop or desktop PCs to the new Wi-Fi 6 standard so they can take full advantage of the faster speeds, greater capacity, and reduced network congestion that Wi-Fi 6 offers.
“The pandemic has accelerated device and bandwidth usage in what was already a device dense Canadian home network,” says Lou Reda, President – D-Link Canada. “The launch of this world’s first Wi-Fi 6 USB adapter means that Canadians can now easily update their legacy laptop and desktop computers to the latest Wi-Fi standard, improving their Wi-Fi performance and therefore helping them be more productive, whether that be for working from home, studying from home, or staying connected with friends and family.”
By taking advantage of the Wi-Fi 6 standard, which was designed to excel in dense network environments, Canadians can experience better Wi-Fi performance, maximizing their home network.
