Wifi 6 also includes the 5GHz band. The higher the frequency of the signal, the more easily impacted it is by things like walls or solid objets.
As for 2.4GHz and smart devices, see my post here: https://forum.telus.com/t5/Internet-Home-Phone/I-was-just-upgraded-to-wifi6-equipment/m-p/148388#M36...

I used another router, simply turned it on as a signal repeater. I have one corner in the room that is behind two solid walls, and the signal couldn't get through there. But now it's all good, the second router just catches the signal and boosts it
