Can 6G finally answer the question of reliable indoor connectivity once and for all? (Reader Forum)
6G arrives with big promises: faster speeds, support for devices embedded in the body, tighter links to AI, and smoother connections as people move between places. But one old problem keeps hanging around: getting a strong, dependable mobile signal indoors.
Walls, building materials, and indoor layouts still block and weaken cellular signals, and 6G on its own is unlikely to fully solve that. Instead, the article argues that Wi‑Fi offload — pushing more indoor data traffic onto Wi‑Fi networks that tie back into mobile cores — is a more realistic way to improve indoor coverage and performance. Rather than waiting for a single generation of mobile technology to fix everything, the future of indoor connectivity will likely depend on smarter coordination between cellular networks and Wi‑Fi inside homes, offices, and public buildings.
