Anyone know if there'll be a Wifi-6 desktop WAP, e.g. an AP904?

Well "in a future firmware release" of course:lol: I'm not holding out a lot of hope if they haven't solved it by now.
It seems that Draytek can easily build a wifi 6 AP (eg the 960c) with mesh capability but presumably they use a different wifi chipset in their wifi 6 routers - why any manufacturer would do that is beyond me.

Hi I have a 2927ax running 4.4.0 and the mesh feature appears to be still missing. When will this be available?
Thanks

Draytek UK have a webinar tomorrow at 10am UK and one of the topics on the agenda is 'Draytek WiFi 6 options'. Might know more after that.

Thanks for the replies both. Pretty poor state of affairs. I’m sure the device was advertised with the mesh capability.
I managed to miss that webinar.

You didn't miss anything - the webinar just covered all the existing kit...

What about the AP906, is that intended as an upgrade to the AP903?
It goes on about trains and airports, so maybe it's something different?
