Wi-Fi 5 is still alive and is widely used in company networks.<\/p>\n
In my experience:<\/p>\n
1. In most companies, wireless infrastructure is now the most critical.<\/p>\n
2. Many companies manage wireless infrastructure (controllers, access points), replace devices, update software, optimize frequency\/channels etc.<\/p>\n
3. But they do not manage endpoint devices (mainly laptops) – different hardware vendors, different OS (Windows) versions, wireless card driver updates.<\/p>\n
4. It doesn’t matter what architecture (local\/central switching) we have, traffic will always pass through the wired infrastructure LAN\/WAN\/IPSec\/MPLS\/ISP links. Bottlenecks in these areas are key.<\/p>\n
The latest report from Cisco about Wi-Fi mentions, for example, an increasing trend of attacks on Wi-Fi infrastructure (using AI) and an interesting fact \u2013 today specialization in AI is very popular, not Wi-Fi. However, old problems related to wired and wireless infrastructure do not disappear.<\/p>\n
