WiFi6 思ったほど速度は出ない・・・
WiFi6 有線LANより速度が早いはずなのに、何か変わらないような・・・
リテラシーの高いユーザーやゲームユーザーなら、こんな経験ありますよね！？
さて実態は？
図のようにPCからAPへの通信は数字の順に通信され、それぞれの通信が1回づつ別途プロトコル(つなぐよ〜 うんイイよ〜 って感じの手順）を毎回やっています。
それに比べ有線の場合は送信・受信は常に並行して行われます(全2重)。また通信単位のプロトコルもありません。スイッチングハブが通信上で「どこからどこへ繋ぐ」ということで行われているので衝突検知もたいした事がないので結果 、WiFi6より1Gbps 有線LANの方が早くなります。
以下の例は 同じAPのWiFi6に繋がった機器間の pingと速度計測(ipferf3) の結果です。

これでは有線で外部との通信とあまり変わらないどころか外部のサイトによっては遅い(DS-Lite速度計測)ですね。WiFi ってすごいオーバーヘッドがかかるのです。通信パケットが早くても一方通行な上でオーバーヘッドが大きいのです。下図は有線LANでの結果で、当然、両面通行（全二重）で通信ができます。いくら頑張ってもギガビット有線の方が早くなるのは当然ですね。ましてや2.5Gbpsでは！
