Wifi 7 pointless

[supershaun]

Yep, you could blame Windows also.

Do you have a WiFi7 phone to test it?

I don’t unfortunately. I might try install Linux/ubuntu and see if that give anything better.

You’re right of course if you include link aggregation.

No link aggregation. Just 2 ax streams at 160 MHz.

I won't say that MLO is pointless, but in many ways it's like MU-MIMO/OFDMA and the like...

Marketing makes a lot of promises...

If you have no other device that'd be awesome. It'd at least rule out where the bug is happening, Intel driver, Windows, or Asus.

Is that not fast enough?

With some luck (clear DFS range) your $200 router can do ~1.7Gbps to 2-stream 160MHz capable client. When you pay $700 for latest and greatest and get hit by the reality - it hurts.

I think there is a benefit in the right situations, here is a speedtest connecting to my NAS using a GT-BE98.

I have just downloaded this on my Ubuntu OS and the copied the url into browser and these are the speeds i get but are not what speeds I am meant to get with provider.So my question is what are these speeds?

So i have installed Ubuntu and getting the exact same results if not slower. so that rules out the windows theory.
