HUAWEI calls its own headline figure theoretical
A dual-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh node sold singly, and a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router.
The router’s own page calls its 3000 Mbit/s a theoretical speed. Almost nothing else in that family qualifies its headline number at all, and on a shelf of rounded badges the qualification is worth more than the number.
The mesh node quotes its coverage in rooms rather than in square metres, which cannot be set against the areas its neighbours publish. Neither listing counts a wired socket or an antenna, so which unit takes the cable from the modem — and what it can carry — is the one question these pages do not answer.
Wi-Fi 6 · 3000 Mbit/s called theoretical by the maker · 160 MHz and 1024-QAM · two bands rated · no socket, no antenna published
A Wi-Fi 6 router whose own listing calls its headline figure a theoretical speed, and which never counts a socket or an antenna.
Best for: A household with 160 MHz-capable phones and laptops that will take the wired side from a switch or a provider box.

Wi-Fi 6 · AX3000 class figure · dual-band · one node · coverage quoted in rooms · no wired socket counted
A single Wi-Fi 6 mesh node that quotes its coverage in rooms rather than in square metres, and never counts a wired socket anywhere on the page.
Best for: A flat of two or three rooms where a second and a third node may follow later, and where nothing at the far end needs a cable.
