PTA approves adoption of next-gen WiFi 7

The Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) on Friday approved the adoption of the latest WiFi generation, WiFi 7, making it one of the first nations in the Asia-Pacific region to use the network.

According to a press release, WiFi 7 and future generations will operate on the 6 GHz network band, underscoring Pakistan’s commitment to digital innovation and leadership.

“Wi-Fi 7 delivers ultra-high data rates, low latency, and robust reliability, enabling 8K streaming, AR/VR, and industrial automation,” the press release read.

“By easing congestion in legacy bands and reducing broadband delivery costs, it will strengthen connectivity for households, SMEs (small-medium enterprises), campuses, healthcare, and smart cities.”

This development comes a week after Information and Technology Secretary Zarrar Hasham said that restoring damaged undersea internet cables may take four to five weeks.

During a meeting of the National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Information Technology and Telecommunication, while responding to a query raised about slow internet and disruptions, the IT secretary replied that multiple cables had been cut off the coast of Yemen, affecting internet services.

A Colorado daycare owner has been jailed for six years for hiding 26 neglected children in her basement that was hidden behind a fake wall. Some of the 26 affected children are still traumatised after being hidden behind a sliding fake wall at a daycare named Mountain Play Place in Colorado Springs. Twelve of the youngsters were under two years-old, despite Faith being told she could only care for two kids in that age bracket.

Netflix’s ‘The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep’ trailer leaves fans spellbound

Image
Netflix has dropped the trailer for its upcoming anime film, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep, based on Andrzej Sapkowski’s short story, A Little Sacrifice. The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep takes inspiration from Sapkowski’s world but presents it with a fresh visual style, where characters have strikingly perfect, almost “superhero-like” appearances. In The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep trailer, Geralt of Rivia, the famous monster hunter, stands out with a more emotional portrayal than usual. His animated face looks closer to Henry Cavill, who played Geralt in Netflix’s live-action The Witcher series, though fans may notice differences from the grittier, less polished Geralt in Sapkowski’s books. The English voice cast features familiar names. Doug Cockle, the voice of Geralt in The Witcher video games, reprises his role, adding a nostalgic touch for fans of the games. Joey Batey, who played Jaskier in the live-action series, is also back to voice the animated version of the bard. In...
