Google Wifi 6 and 802.11ax. Multi-radio, multi-frequency, MIMO. Also antennas are like camera lenses - you can't break physics, if you optimize for size, you may be trading off performance characteristics and vice-versa.

Mine looks like an oversized AirWick cone and generates a warm column of air as well as DHCP and datagram forwarding services.
