Hi YAD,
Wi-Fi 6 should be enabled by default on the Helix Fi 2 gateway. According to their specifications, both first and second generation Helix Pods are not compatible with the 802.11ax standard. However, the 2nd generation Helix pod with its tri-band technology will provide improved speed and range similarly to a Wi-Fi 6 radio.
