What is Wi-Fi 7 and just how fast is it?


Wi-Fi 7 is the fastest wireless network around - up to 5.8 Gigabits per second and beyond. Fast enough for you?

However, short wavelengths are lousy at connecting at long distances and suffer greater interference from physical obstructions, such as dense walls or floors in a building. Where you're going to want Wi-Fi 7 is with newer, high-end programs, such as augmented, virtual, and extended reality (AR/VR/XR) applications, immersive 3D training, and ultra-high definition (8K) video streaming. For example, thanks to its built-in multilink operation, which enables devices to send and receive data over all three bands (2.4Ghz, 5GHz, or 6GHz), Wi-Fi 7 can shift between them, or combine them, as needed to give you the best possible speed.
