Wi-Fi 7: A Game Changer in Wireless Connectivity with Up to 30Gbps Speeds

Wi-Fi 7, also known as 802.11be, represents a significant leap forward in wireless connectivity, offering speeds of up to 30Gbps and accommodating more devices without compromising performance (Statista). With an average of 50.2 connected devices per household predicted by 2023 (Statista), Wi-Fi 7’s features like Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and Target Wake Time (TWT) enable seamless support for these growing numbers while minimizing power consumption (IEEE). TechRadar considers it a "quantum leap forward in wireless technology" (TechRadar). However, note that current devices are not compatible with Wi-Fi 7, requiring new routers and gadgets to achieve optimal performance.
