Reliability is Wi-Fi 8’s main focus as Broadcom and Sercomm reveal first platform
New router marks transition from theoretical design to working hardware
Wi-Fi 8 is beginning to move beyond lab testing, offering the first glimpse of what the next generation of wireless connectivity will look like.
In an industry that’s usually obsessed with peak speed, Wi-Fi 8’s focus is on reliability, with the aim being to improve stability, cut latency, and deliver better performance in environments with many connected devices.
At its core, Wi-Fi 8 will continue to use familiar frequency bands — 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz — but with wider 320MHz channels and new physical layer improvements. The theoretical ceiling sits at around 46Gbps, although most of the attention is focused on maintaining performance rather than chasing record numbers.Fundamental pivot
Features such as Enhanced Long Range and Distributed Resource Units are designed to keep signals stable even when multiple devices compete for bandwidth or when users move farther from their routers.
