Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin yesterday announced that the government will provide free WiFi for visitors and patients at all government hospitals in Malaysia. Moreover, Khairy said that the initiative will be implemented at Hospital Rembau in Negeri Sembilan first before being expanded to other public hospitals nationwide.

With techs like virtual reality and games streaming, the wireless capabilities of devices had to upgrade to keep up. In the last year or so, Wi-Fi 6 has been the dominant wireless standard in devices. But did you know that Wi-Fi 7 is already on the way?

Although Android 13 is still a long way to go, we have already seen some of the features that it might bring. Today, a new one dubbed 'tap to transfer' has arrived, and it could allow users to transfer media files to speakers more seamlessly.

Samsung, as well as MediaTek, has recently unveiled the world’s first 8K TV which supports the new Wi-Fi 6 standard that allows it to smoothly stream 8K content. This is due to the fact that the aforementioned TV comes equipped with MediaTek’s custom Wi-Fi 6 chipset, which is compatible with the new Wi-Fi standard.

The new Wi-Fi 6 standard has recently been unveiled which is not only backwards compatible with previous Wi-Fi standards, but it is also able to achieve up to 1.5Gbps based on a test conducted by CNET. To put it into perspective, CNET managed to download all 22 Marvel Cinematic Universe movies in 4k resolution in less than 2 hours and 20 minutes.

Based on a statement by cnet.com, the development of the new Wi-Fi 7 standard is currently underway which promises up to 30Gbps in speeds over Wi-Fi connection. Not only will it be significantly faster compared to today’s standards, but it will also be broadcasted over 6GHz frequency which was first introduced in Wi-Fi 6.
