An ad-hoc group of companies, organizations and public-sector institutions looking to bust the Wi-Fi/#unlicensedspectrum bottleneck. #WifiAtWork #CBRSsuccess
While there are differences in data usage patterns between carriers, it’s clear that #WiFi is a key driver in Americans’ internet access. It’s essential that policymakers consider how Americans are using Wi-Fi when making spectrum allocation decisions. wififorward.org/news/new-study…
There's a growing body of evidence highlighting an urgent need for more #unlicensedspectrum. We share the details ⬇️ wififorward.org/news/new-repor…
#WiFi is key to #innovation, especially with developments in #AI. Having commercial technologies that empower Wi-Fi is crucial to ensuring the U.S. remains a global tech leader and doesn’t give China an edge. @SenateCommerce discusses: commerce.senate.gov/2025/2/america…
A recent @WBAlliance @CableLabs test found that #WiFi7 performed better than #WiFi6 in a standard home setting due to its 320 MHz channels. The study shows this gives Americans the best Wi-Fi, moving data faster, improving consumers' experience. wififorward.org/news/blog-new-…
As demand for #WiFi grows, so does congestion for consumers. In a new blog, @ConnectedComLLC breaks down @TheBrattleGroup’s projections and why policymakers must act now to expand access to unlicensed spectrum. Check it out here: connectedcomllc.medium.com/wi-fi-congesti…
ICYMI: A survey by @NCTAitv and @MorningConsult underscores what we all know: #WiFi is essential to our daily lives, and Americans think it’s important for policymakers to allocate more spectrum to ensure Wi-Fi remains fast and reliable.
A new survey by NCTA and Morning Consult highlights how essential Wi-Fi is today and why consumers support action to expand spectrum access for Wi-Fi: bit.ly/3FwDDzB
Wi-Fi is the primary digital force that keeps us connected in our homes, schools, and offices—enabling the way we live, work, and play every day. Don’t just take our word for it⬇️ linkedin.com/posts/mistermu…
Opening up the 6 GHz band for #wifi had a huge impact on the US economy & consumers. From unlocking trillions to creating faster speeds, this was a win for all Americans. @disruptivedean discusses where we stand with 6 GHz in @rcrwirelessnews: rcrwireless.com/20250514/uncat…
Americans are worried that limited spectrum availability could lead to slower or less reliable Wi-Fi. It's time for Congress to make smart spectrum decisions that will promote continued U.S. innovations and ensure Wi-Fi can continue meeting consumer needs. ncta.com/news/survey-am…
A lack of #unlicensed spectrum has consequences for consumers. @Sony told the Indian gov't that without 6 GHz spectrum, its newest model of PlayStations will be unavailable to Indian gamers. Learn why we need unlicensed spectrum to fuel consumer devices: wififorward.org/news/blog-want…
.@opensignal found that Americans use significantly more data over Wi-Fi than cellular, both in and out of the home. Wi-Fi is an integral part of our culture and economy, but it needs attention from policymakers to keep meeting consumers’ everyday needs. wififorward.org/news/wi-fi-is-…
With the next generation of Wi-Fi coming into view and the number of Wi-Fi devices growing exponentially, the time is now for policymakers to ensure that Wi-Fi has the spectrum resources needed to continue meeting the moment. Learn more: wififorward.org/news/wi-fi-is-…
#spectrum exhaustion in Wi-Fi has massive consumer and economic impacts. From disrupting Americans' daily use of Wi-Fi to undermining its significant economic value, additional spectrum must be allocated to prevent this. Learn more in our new blog: wififorward.org/news/blog-what…
Have you heard? Even outside the home, smartphone users are relying on Wi-Fi for their data needs. We’re proud to advocate for smart spectrum policies that ensure technologies keep pace with this consumer demand today and for years to come. wififorward.org/news/new-study…
Are you a gamer? Then you need unlicensed spectrum! The Indian gov't won't get the latest Sony PlayStation devices without 6 GHz Wi-Fi. In the US, policymakers have recognized that sufficient spectrum for #wifi is needed to drive innovation: wififorward.org/news/blog-want…
#WiFi powers our world. From homes, schools, to the hard work being done on Capitol Hill! We joined with several partners to celebrate #WorldWiFiDay, ft. hands-on demos of just a few devices that rely on Wi-Fi. Everyday devices from watches to doorbells to cameras run on #WiFi!
Without more #wifi spectrum soon, consumers will start to experience slower connections and annoying buffering, disrupting their daily lives. Learn more about why policymakers must allocate additional spectrum for Wi-Fi ASAP: 🛜 wififorward.org/news/blog-what…
Thank you to CTA members @Amazon @Garmin & @Meta for demonstrating how Wi-Fi is powering our world as we celebrated #WorldWiFiDay with @NCTAitv @WifiForward @wballiance & @WiFiAlliance.
