    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    I live in a condo building with congested wifi. I’ve also had occasional signal disruptions on the 5Ghz band. It’s why I was an early adopter for 6Ghz and it’s been great for me. Great that your wifi is so reliable. Not everyone is so lucky. But assuming that your situation applies to everyone...

    Financial industry. It’s not about speed. I’m looking at the latency and reliability provided by MLO.

    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    The 802.11 TGs have changed a lot since the AC days. The 802.11be Task Group is led by people from Qualcomm, Intel, and Broadcom. These guys know what they are doing. The cycles are much quicker and Wifi 8 is already under development.

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    Thinking like that is also the reason why there are so many places with CAT5 cabling, when CAT5e or CAT6 has had a negligible marginal cost for decades.

    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    MLO for starters, for those of us who work from our phones.

    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    The technical specifications of 802.11be are essentially complete, allowing for the Wifi 7 hardware certification program. The final IEEE ratification is just a formality at this point.

    RT-BE96U Tri-Band

    That’s a daft speculation. Asus has previously submitted early release products for Wifi 5,6 and 6E certification.

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    https://dongknows.com/asus-rog-rapture-gt-be98-pro-wi-fi-7-review/ “After a long wait, Asus finally confirmed with me earlier this week that US users can purchase the former before 2023 is out or soon into the new year. On the other hand, the GT-BE98's release date is still up in the air, and...

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    The specs are pretty much finalized. It’s the ballot voting that’s going to take up most of the year.

    News TEG-S750 (Version v2.0R) 5-Port 10G Switch

    That’s not actually true. You can usually get 10Gb over Cat5e up to 50m, and up to 70m depending on cable quality. Edit: That Amazon link is to the older v1.0R version. New revision isn’t out yet.

    News TEG-S750 (Version v2.0R) 5-Port 10G Switch

    https://www.trendnet.com/products/10g-switch/5-port-10g-switch-TEG-S750-v2.0R New version of Trendnet’s venerable TEG-S750 5 port 10Gb switch is coming soon. Max power and MTBF have both gone up, and RAM buffer is now 12 MB. Looks like a more powerful chipset in the new version. Hoping for...

    RT-BE96U Tri-Band

    Lots of people paid $600 for the AXE16000. This has a more powerful CPU, better throughput, and way better 10G performance.

    RT-BE96U Tri-Band

    Still the fastest Wifi 6 router as well.

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    I’m hoping you can disable the band splitting in the GT-BE98. If not I’m going for the RT-BE96U.

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    Dong complained about this as well in his review of the RT-BE96U. Stupid double wrapping, probably came like that from the antenna supplier.

    RT-BE96U Tri-Band

    Yeah, Dong was getting 1881 on 5Ghz. Not sure which firmware he was using.

    RT-BE96U Tri-Band

    https://dongknows.com/asus-rt-be96u-be19000-tri-band-wi-fi-7-router-review/ First review I’ve seen. Edit: Very positive review from Dong. “So it’s safe to say the RT-BE96U is the fastest Wi-Fi router I’ve seen.”

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    That’s not how it works. There are companies that launch products the day they get FCC approval. The RT-BE96U is the first of its generation and took a lot longer to develop due to firmware. Initial filings were in January and it has been available for sale since August in small volumes. 6GHz...

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    https://fccid.io/MSQ-RTBE6X00 FCC filings for the BQ16 Pro just became available. Would estimate at least a month or two before it becomes available.
