Better later than never?

Wi-Fi 7 to get the final seal of approval early next year, new standard is up to 4.8 times faster than Wi-Fi 6::There are a lot of ‘draft’ Wi-Fi 7 devices around, but ‘Wi-Fi 7 Certified’ devices will only come to market sometime next year.

    Will I be able to use it in another room? Because wow wifi 5 was awful, and 6 isn’t that much better.

      Generally as wireless tech gets faster, it’s less able to travel distances or penetrate stuff

        That’s the most frustrating thing. I have 3 mesh waps in my house, but if you connect in a different room you get 2.4ghz. At this point I need a mesh wap in every room.

        As the wavelengths get shorter, so too does my patience :/

          Hardwire them if possible. Mesh isn’t great, way too much Wireless traffic that’s disturbing each other.

          Compared to ethernet, WiFi isn’t duplex.
