So they're explicitly look at more than just adding more bits per second.
- skavi 1y agoI wonder how consumer Wi-Fi 8 products will be marketed. “Now More Reliable!” in a spiky red circle alongside the unchanged highly theoretical bandwidth numbers?
- PaulKeeble 1y agoSeems to me its mostly a version focussed on the enterprise, just like wifi 6 was. I suspect many consumers will just skip it like they did wifi 6 as it brings very little for them. Wifi 7 is a big jump from wifi 5 (and 6) in performance but its still not complete, way too many devices that only support dual band and not supporting the various forms of MLO properly. Still no open source firmwares supporting it either.
