Wi-Fi Alliance introduces Wi-Fi 6
Wi-Fi Alliance is naming the not-yet-complete IEEE 802.11ax standard as Wi-Fi 6, with ac being 5, and n being 4.  One can guess then a is supposed to 1, b as 2, and g as 3, but this isn't mentioned anywhere I can see.<p>As far as I can tell, all of these numbers are new.  At least this naming is a good deal clearer than HDMI's confusing version and feature mix or USB's Speed names.<p>What isn't clear is how much control the Wi-Fi Alliance has over the tech industry and how their branding is used, but it looks like they might be able to compel a lot of companies to adopt this new naming.  They've got standards for logos on things like your computer or phone, so we'll see if these start getting adopted by major manufacturers.
