What is WiFi 7?
The newest WiFi standard, WiFi 7, also known as IEEE 802.11be Extremely High Throughput (EHT), was built as a solution to deliver faster speeds, less interference and greater efficiency for today’s increasing high-bandwidth online activities.
If you’re struggling with constant buffering, lag, or congestion, WiFi 7 routers can be your ideal choice.

How Does WiFi 7 Work?
These exciting enhancements and major lifestyle changes are made possible by WiFi 7's innovative technologies. All these breakthroughs will help the digital age to enjoy even more eye-opening experiences.
Double Width, Double Speed
320 MHz High-Capacity Channels
WiFi 7 unleashes the full potential of the 6 GHz spectrum to double the bandwidth compared with WiFi 6. Extending channel width to 320 MHz also enables many more simultaneous transmissions at the fastest possible speeds.
Higher Speed, Lower Latency, More Reliable
Multi-Link Operation
Traditional WiFi devices use a single link to transmit data at the same time. With Multi-Link Operation (MLO), WiFi 7 allows devices to simultaneously send and receive data across different WiFi bands to increase throughput, reduce latency, and improve reliability for online gaming, AR/VR, remote offices, and cloud computing.
Double the Streams, Double the Capacity
16 × 16 MU-MIMO
WiFi 7 increases the number of spatial streams from 8 to 16 and the theoretical physical transmission rate is thus doubled compared with WiFi 6. 16 × 16 MU-MIMO guarantees stable connections and smooth experiences for your connected devices simultaneously whether they are streaming, downloading and playing online games.
12 bits per symbol
10 bits per symbol
20% More Data Transmission，
Higher Speed
4K-QAM
With 4K-QAM modulation, each symbol carries 12 bits rather than 10 bits, which packs in 20% more data at a time for online gaming, live streaming, downloading and more.
No Waste, No Congestion
Preamble Puncturing
Channels with signal interference become unavailable. Based on preamble puncturing, your WiFi can avoid channels with interference and use the additional channels to transmit your data. No more worrying about your neighbors’ WiFi interference!

Multi-RUs
Makes Full Use of Every Resource
Multi-RU
With WiFi 6, each user can only send or receive frames on an assigned resource unit (RU), which significantly limits the flexibility of the spectrum resource scheduling. To solve this problem and further enhance spectral efficiency, WiFi 7 allows multiple RUs to be assigned to a single user and can combine RUs for increased transmission efficiency.
What’s Different from the Previous Generations?
Wi-Fi 7 delivers next-gen wireless, making giant strides in throughput — 480% more than previous generati ons. Thanks to backward compatibility, a WiFi 7 router opens up your entire home to the latest online experiences.
