The Wi-Fi Alliance this week kicked off its certification program for the latest and greatest Wi-Fi technology, 802.11ac, and Samsung was the first in line to run its mobile devices through the paces. Three variants of the new Galaxy Mega smartphone, as well as the Galaxy S 4 Active and one unidentified handset with the model number SCH-P729, were the first smartphones to get the official Wi-Fi stamp of approval.
You may be wondering why certification is just starting now. 802.11ac devices have been making their way into the market all year, preceded by chipsets and routers in 2012. But this is just the way the Wi-Fi industry works. As Alliance Marketing andProgram Management Director Kelly Davis-Felner pointed out, there have to be commercial devices available before they can be certified.
