    Get rid of the cable and add heat

    The problem with adding high bandwidth wifi is that it adds quite a bit of heat to a device. That’s why high bandwidth wifi 6e devices and 10 gigabit Ethernet devices get quite warm. Many cameras already have a lot of heat problems because video sensors and processing already generates quite a bit of heat. Wireless always generates more heat than wired due to much higher amplification, transmit power, and demodulation requirements.

      Yes, now it does with the current tech. I’m sure you’ll agree we can make more efficient devices in the future and they will support the same standard as your router
