The cheapest Wi-Fi 7 router is this $99 TP-Link
Don’t look here for quicker downloads, though.
The new tricks can mean a little throughput boost or a more stable connection than routers built to older specs in congested areas, though, thanks to the way Wi-Fi 7 handles its data streams. It also supports Multi-Link Operation, which won’t be so much a throughput benefit (again: no 6GHz band) but could mean a more stable connection for a Wi-Fi 7-capable phone or VR headset — if one band fails or is too busy, your future device can fall back onto the other one.And it supports the Wi-Fi Alliance’s EasyMesh standard, meaning it can make mesh netwok with routers from other brands that also support the standard. That’s a first, and by a fair amount — the low end right now is otherwise generally around $300 (see TP-Link’s Deco BE63 or Archer BE550).
