I needed it for extending my wifi range.Unless you have devices that supports the AX format, the router won't speed up your network.
WiFi was hit or miss on the back of my property. The new ax73 works with an extended range as needed.
Note: wifi 6 is just a beefed up 5g signal.
WiFi 6a is the newer ax you are thinking about. The ax73 is not wifi 6a. If it was WiFi 6a, it would cost around $500,not $150.
Edit: wifi 6e, not 6a.
