The next-generation WiFi 8 (IEEE 802.11bn) specification is not meant to improve performance, but rather to [boost reliability of wireless connections](https://www.tomshardware.com/networking/wi-fi-8-will-not-improve-transfer-speeds-the-new-standard-will-however-enhance-reliability-and-user-experience) as they become even more ubiquitous. Since improving reliability is a pretty vague description, the IEEE has issued a scope document that quantitatively defines the enhancements. According to a new post by [Qualcomm](https://www.qualcomm.com/news/onq/2025/07/wi-fi-8-advancing-wireless-through-ultra-high-reliability) (which is a contributor to the standard), the IEEE wants Wi-Fi 8 devices to offer a 25% improvement across a number of metrics, under the umbrella of Ultra High Reliability, or UHR - [Tom's Hardware](https://www.tomshardware.com/networking/next-gen-wi-fi-8-focuses-on-reliability-instead-of-speed-ultra-high-reliability-initiative-boosts-performance-lowers-latency-and-packet-loss-in-challenging-conditions).
