My understanding is the WiFi6 problem with SB Radios is because of the
WiFi chip that is unique to the SB Radios.  Other SB devices use
different WiFi chips.  The frustrating part is the interference can be
due to a neighbor using WiFi6.  Look in the SB radio forum for a more
detailed discussion.

For internet security I am more concerned about other IoT such as
sprinkler controllers, Roku, washer and dryer, than my SB system,
because there is a lot more of those devices that might be exploited and
would be a target for hackers.
