the difference between 5Ghz (5150-5895) and 6Ghz (5925-7125) is not really sufficient to blame for most home uses. It’s expected as a rule to lose about 10-20% more power than 5Ghz through walls (where 5Ghz lost 100% more power than 2.4 Ghz does). It’s much more likely that your new WAP just does less power or worse antenna than the old one did.
Whats a wired access point called?
A switch?
Wireless defines how you access the point… Not that the access point itself is wireless.
A switch is technically a “standard” access point (or just ports in the wall connected back to the switch).
We use “Wireless” access point to denote access to the network without physical connections.
WAPs can connect to the network via wired or wireless means. Where most people will reference “WAP” as a wired (wired uplink) connected wireless access point… and Mesh (Wireless uplink) WAPs as wireless connected wireless access points.
