[June 4th 2024] MSI is showcasing its Roamii WiFi 7 mesh system at COMPUTEX 2024. Made to handle the increasing number of WiFi 7-supported devices and AI-accelerated applications arriving in 2024 and beyond, the Roamii series, with an integrated Qualcomm® Immersive Home series, will be ready to bring an ultra-fast, easily managed WiFi network with 24/7 security protection throughout your home.

The Ultimate WiFi 7 Mesh System for Seamless Home Connectivity​

MSI's newest WiFi 7 mesh system, the Roamii series, supports speeds of up to 21Gbps thanks to extra-wide 320MHz channels that double the bandwidth. The Qualcomm Immersive Home platform’s powerful CPU drives advanced WiFi features, including 4K-QAM, Multi-RU, and MLO (Multi-Link Operation), across a mesh system that is designed to ensure its users experience seamless and uninterrupted internet access throughout their homes. Furthermore, a robust 10Gbps wired connection is included, making Roamii series a great addition to a blazing fast home network.

"Qualcomm Technologies is proud to power MSI's Roamii WiFi 7 mesh system with our Immersive Home platform, setting a high standard for home connectivity," said Ganesh Swaminathan, Vice President and General Manager, Wireless Infrastructure and Networking, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. "This collaboration is focused on transforming the smart home experience with seamless, ultra-fast, and connectivity. Together, we are pushing the boundaries of what's possible in-home networking technology."

MSI FortiSecu​

Network security is always a high priority and MSI FortiSecu offers 24/7 protection to all connected devices such as phones, laptops, and smart home appliances. Cyber security threats, such as data breaches and identity theft, could be done through a remote attack or infecting a local device with malware. MSI FortiSecu automatically scans each device when connected, and it will immediately block a compromised IoT device or abnormal traffic then send an alert by push notification to an owner.

In addition, FortiSecu’s parental controls provide a safer way for young users to explore the internet. With a flexible and effortless configuration menu, parents can filter unappropriated content for different age groups and gain insight into their children’s’ online activity. Internet access can also be scheduled to allow or restrict users.

“As AI-accelerated applications and IoT devices continue to grow, the MSI Roamii series combines cutting-edge WiFi 7 technology with FortiSecu, delivering exceptional performance and enhanced network security to meet the needs of our users throughout their homes.” said Vincent Hou, Assistant Vice President of GNP BU.

Cool - wish they would have leveraged into USB-C rather than the USB-A connectors...
 
It's a very odd line-up of products though.

Mostly mesh points - which is fine - Qualcomm Immersive Home - I suspect they are using the 326 platform...

The USB dongle - most likely MediaTek (remote chance of it being realtek I suppose)

I think it's the IPQ5302 on the Lite model as it lacks USB 3.0 support and then maybe the IPQ5312 and IPQ5322/5332 as that lines up with the port specs.

Dongle, no idea, but Realtek seems to have that market pretty corned these days, so I wouldn't bet on MTK. Realtek showed this last year at Computex.

Weren't these supposed to be released in Q2? I'm chomping at the bit for a reasonably priced WiFi 7 mesh system with multi gig ports and nothing currently on the market is appealing.
