Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G WiFi 6e ?

[felicem]

Hello Community, 

AFAIK the S21 Ultra 5G US model supports WiFi 6e (6Ghz band, 802.11ax).

Any clue why Canadian version doesn't seem to ? My S21 Ultra 5G doesn't see my GT-AXE11000 6Ghz SSID ... I'm assuming it's disabled on the Canadian version. Anyone know something about this ?

Thank you,

Felice

Thank you Axton. But why ? Is it something to do with licensing?

This is unacceptable! When i purchased my Galaxy S21 Ultra through Telus in Canada it was widely advertised through both my provider and Samsung Canada that this phone supported Wi-Fi 6E 6ghz band.

It's still on Samsung Canada website under specs for Galaxy S21 Ultra that it supports 6 GHz!
