Although supporting gear rolled out over the past couple of years, component shortages, satisfaction with Wi-Fi 6, and the impending arrival of Wi-Fi 7 have led many to overlook the latest wireless standard.

Netgear is looking to make adoption easier by announcing a USB adapter that brings Wi-Fi 6E to supporting systems via a USB 3.x Type-A connection.

According to the San Jose, California-based company's announcement, it supports the 2.4 GHz band at up to 600 Mbps, the 5 GHz band at up to 1,200 Mbps, and the 6 GHz band at up to 1,200 Mbps.

Of course, you won't be able to make the most out of the adapter without a Wi-Fi 6E router.

Wi-Fi 6E is a boost over Wi-Fi 6 by leveraging the 6 GHz band in addition to the 2.4 and 5 GHz ones for less congestion and lower latency.

All that said, a simple way to add Wi-Fi 6E to your PC may not be enough to warrant moving to the standard. But for those who have the gear, space, and interest to make the upgrade worth it, Netgear said it would release the AXE3000 this month at a $90 MSRP.
