If you're a fan of wireless networking, then this year's NetWorld + Interop show is the place to be. Doing a search for available wireless networks brings up a long list of available SSIDs, from just about any location in the Las Vegas Convention Center.

6G will leverage many different bands and tools to meet the ever-growing demands and expectations for cellular communications.
