Haha, you and me both. At least it probably won’t matter for a few years.
Comment on Wi-Fi 7 quietly took off while everyone was looking at AI

I literally just installed my unifi wifi6 pro a coupl weeks ago. …I had no idea WiFi 7 was just around the corner.
That said, non of my devices support that as far as I know so I am not going to be missing out for a while I don’t think.

It won’t be worth it for a hot minute. There are only a few routers on the market and they range from several hundred to a couple thousand.
And there are even fewer devices that support it. There are a couple laptops that support it, but they’re a few thousand dollars.

Sounds like the usual introduction for a new wifi protocol. It’s a niche market until enough devices become compatible. Then a rapid adoption as things reach their normal end-of-life and are replaced.
So wifi 7 will be widely adopted in 5-7 years if it proves stable.

I wish I knew how long a hot minute was.

I think it’s how long a minute would feel if your head was on fire for the duration.

You can upgrade any laptop with socketed m.2 wireless to wifi 7 for ~$20
