A new law restores the FCC’s authority to auction spectrum and requires at least 800 MHz to be sold, potentially pulling it from the 6 GHz and CBRS bands currently used for Wi-Fi and rural broadband. While mobile carriers like AT&T and Verizon support the move for 5G expansion, critics warn it could slow Wi-Fi and harm small ISPs that rely on those bands. The law reverses earlier efforts to protect 6 GHz for unlicensed use and reflects growing pressure from the wireless industry, now backed by former FCC Chair Ajit Pai, who leads a major telecom lobby. This and more on the Tech Field Day News Rundown with Tom Hollingsworth and Alastair Cooke.
