Fire stick Wi-Fi 6
Anyone have any idea how to get a Fire Stick 4K Max to connect to Wi-Fi 6? I have the XB8 Gateway. Is this compatible only with Eero? I’m always connected at 5GHz.

Wi-Fi 6 and 5GHz aren't necessarily related. "Wi-Fi 6" means the Wi-Fi standard that's called 802.11ax, a higher speed better peforming version of "Wi-Fi 5" or 802.11ac, the previous standard. Either version can operate at either 2.4GHz or 5GHz. You might be confusing the 6GHz wireless frequency, which is used in Wi-Fi 6E. That is an even newer version of Wi-Fi, and is something the Fire Stick 4K Max definitely doesn't support.

Hi there, @mgriff I'm very sorry for the trouble you are having connecting your Fire Stick. Since it's been a few days since you last posted, were you able to get your Fire Stick connected? If you are still having trouble, please don't hesitate to reach back out.-Richard
