[RTINGS] Wi-Fi 7 Marketing Is Lying About Its Biggest Feature

Netgear has an issue with: No MLO No wifi 7 on the 2.4 and 5ghz bands. Just wifi 6 mode on those two bands. Struggles to maintain multi-RU allocations like it should. 700mbps on 2.4ghz is effectively a lie, being on top of an rs700s router with a be200 laptop caps at 144 mbps.

Good Wi-Fi Router in 2026. Any recommendation?

Just did this - 7 people, 3 floors. Went through a few mesh systems (tplink be4800, be5000, XE75). Hated the way mesh worked, walked to another room device would hang on the further node and online games were choppier (higher ping and latency) than a single nighthawk (even had wired backhaul from ma

Current Experiences with AP7?

I just switched from gold se with 1 netgear rs700s (similar to orbi with no mesh) and 1 netgear raxe500 (used for 2.4ghz iot cams etc). Switched to a gold plus and 2 ap7. I have 1 ap7 wired to the gold plus and the 2nd ap7 uses wireless backhaul. Everything has been super solid and all of my outdoor

I got a new modem and router and my download speed dropped easily 30% and my uploads dropped 90%

I use the Netgear CM3000 modem (with Netgear RS700S router) with my 1.2G Xfinity plan and I get download speed in excess of 1.4G and upload speed near 50 Mbps. So, I am getting what I pay for.

Segway Navimow X43O & WiFi Routers

I run Ubiquiti security cameras, but they're all running on a bridged Netgear WiFi router system. In the future, I thought about switching over to their routers. But I love how Netgear labels everything. Once I click on FN-Technology, the app gives me the MAC/IP details. I've always been a Netgear g

Best router/mesh system for 1000/100 mixed wired/wifi router

I highly recommend a rs700s by Netgear!!!! I have one. And I love it. It’s super fast ping for games and can handle a lot 4x4 connection on 2.4 5 and 6 hz. It’s wifi 7 and has a huge range (metres). It’s an over kill for my needs. But I really like it and should last for several years. Had no proble

How to increase?

Even the cheaper Mesh systems without wired backhaul will suffer. You could go with a really expensive Deco system that has good wireless backhaul but you're looking at $800-1000. I have a 3500 sq ft house. Went through 3 deco (be4800, be5000, xe75pro) systems, Netgear nighthawks (rs300, 500, 700),

Router only has one 2.5gb WAN port, LAN ports are 1gb. On a 2.5gb internet plan. Is wired connection still possible without buying a new router?

Which router should I get?

You're understanding is correct. The AdTran routers they provide are garbage! You're better off going with your own router. Lots of folks prefer Ubiquiti and they're decent, though I've had great luck with a Netgear RS700S. Dual 10GB WAN and LAN ports along with multiple 1GB ports and the latest and
