Why are home wifis faster than corporate wifis?

  There are several factors that can affect the speed of Wi-Fi networks, such as the wireless protocol, the number of devices connected, the interference and positioning of the router and the devices, and the bandwidth capacity of the network.

Home Wi-Fi networks are usually faster than corporate Wi-Fi networks because they have fewer devices connected, less interference from other networks or sources, and more control over the router settings and placement. Home Wi-Fi routers also tend to have external antennas that can improve the signal strength and coverage.

Corporate Wi-Fi networks, on the other hand, have to deal with a larger number of devices, more interference from neighboring networks or sources, and less flexibility in changing the router settings or placement. Corporate Wi-Fi networks also use commercial access points (APs) that have built-in antennas and higher price tags. These APs support higher wireless protocols and bandwidth capacities, but they also require more complex configuration and management¹.

Therefore, home Wi-Fi networks are faster than corporate Wi-Fi networks because they have less congestion and more optimization. However, this may not always be the case, as some home Wi-Fi routers may be outdated or damaged, or some devices may have different capabilities that affect their speed².
