[SOLVED] Looking for 60GHz Wifi Router

[aschreyer]

I'm currently looking for a 60GHz wifi router that is dual or tri-band (preferably tri-band), and has beam & band steering. I'm using it for communicating with multiple devices on the same network in a crowded live event with a lot of noise. I still need a really stable and quick connection, so does anyone have an suggestions for a wifi router that might perform well in this scenario? Thanks in advance!

How do you plan to set this device up? 60Ghz back haul to something? 60Ghz to a device?
Here are a couple of options -- https://fiberguide.net/60ghz-wigig-or-ieee-802-11ad-technology-the-leading-60ghz-router-providers/
WiGIG kind of fizzled out. There really isn't much support for 60Ghz other than point-to-point.

These devices are hard to find. There was a lot of reports it worked very poorly when it first came out. The main problem was you have to be very close to the router for it to work. In most cases you might as well run ethernet cable.

A solution that might work for while is to use wifi6e. It has just started to become somewhat easier to get this equipment so not a lot of people are using it. You likely could use the 6g radio band to avoid interference. The 6g radio goes much farther than 60g and I suspect it might be easier to get wifi6e. Now a couple years from now I suspect 6g to be overcrowded also. Likely idiots trying to get 10gbit connections over wifi by using all the radio bandwidth for a single user.
