Hopefully these are using a newer chipset than the Realtek RTL8125 based ones that have been out for several years.  The RTL8125 family powers 95% of the 2.5Gbe dongle adaptors on the market today and they are prone to overheating very quickly during sustained transfers (which is what you want 2.5Gbe or higher ethernet for).  When they overheat they throttle down below even 1Gbe speeds, making them WORSE than just using an old school legacy gigabit adaptor that can sustain full speed without ever overheating.  I have several 2.5Gbe dongles that I experimented with over the years and most of them work ok if you tear into the packaging and add your own larger heatsinks on the chips.  Looks ugly as hell but at least you can sustain 2.5Gbe speeds for more than 30 seconds with the beefier heatsinks.  Stock all these dongles are terrible.

You won't notice anything different if you need these for just web browsing, but if you are using them to speed up your local network, spend the extra cash and get a proper 10Gbe ethernet adaptor.  Yes they cost more, but they don't overheat.

Fun fact, you can get fast wired networking/internet on iPad if you use these dongles as iPadOS has built in drivers for them.

To al those commenting, the headline was changed shortly after AppleZulu commented to what it currently reads.  Earlier the headline said something to the effect of "Helicopter crash caused by iPad".  Adding the word "dropped" changed the tone dramatically.

Wow lots of jerks here.  

Having used the Tesla UI for 6 years now, I'm used to it where it's actually easier for me to use than the CarPlay UI.   I agree that most manufacturers OEM infotainment systems are hot trash though.  Tesla's UI is just much better than all other OEM UI's out there.  It's not perfect (even CarPlay has issues) but it's good.

Technically, the only difference between Wifi 6 and 6E is the 6Ghz band.  The protocol and all that are the same, 6E just operates on a higher (and far less busy) frequency.

In a clean RF environment where 5Ghz and 6Ghz are open, there should be little to no difference between the two from a speed standpoint, beyond the fact 6Ghz can't penetrate walls as well as 5Ghz (or 2.4Ghz).

In dense RF environments like in cities or packed urban areas the 6Ghz frequency can make a huge difference though, as multiple radios aren't fighting for time on the same frequencies, aided in by the fact 6Ghz has trouble penetrating through walls.  If you are near a transmitter you will get great speeds with next to no interference from other wifi networks.  You just might need a few more transmitters to get great signal throughout your home.
