Hi @Jay_01

It allows for a faster connection if the devices allow it.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

Just checking, how is this linked to the tarrif? This is surely just the wifi protocol being offered by the host device and not at all linking back to the 3, 4 or 5G tarrif.
