On December 28, 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
affirmed the Federal Communications Commission's ("FCC's" or
"Commission's") authority to permit unlicensed wireless devices, such as
internet routers, smart phones, and laptops, to operate in the 6 GHz band.
In AT&T Services, Inc. v. FCC
<https://cases.justia.com/federal/appellate-courts/cadc/20-1190/20-1190-2021-12-28.pdf?ts=1640709153>,
the three-judge panel rejected 6 GHz incumbent licensees' arguments that
allowing such users to operate inside the band would cause undue
interference with preexisting users, but remanded the First Report and
Order
<https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-20-164A1.pdf> ("Order") to
the FCC on one limited issue. As a result of the Order, the Commission
promises stronger and more expansive and cost-effective Wi-Fi networks
for consumers and minimal effects on incumbents.
