I'm wondering if the Era 100/300 will be capable of connecting to Wi-Fi 6E in the future. According to Sonos documentation, right now they are only capable of connecting to 802.11ac (WiFi 5), 802.11ax (WiFi 6), 802.11n, and 802.11a
On the other hand, @Corry P mentioned in an older “ era future proof “ article that the chipsets in the Era 100 and Era 300 also support WiFi 6E, and as these technologies mature and become mainstream, Sonos can provide software updates for the Era 100 and Era 300 to add new features.
Does that mean Era speakers will be able to support 6GHz Wi-Fi 6E ( 802.11axe ) in a future update?

They won’t connect to a 6GHz network which is the new bit for 6E over 6 … They will still connect to a 6E wireless network device, just using the 5GHz or 2.4GHz bands.
