Good to see the Microsoft is finally starting to provide support for WiFi 7 on Windows, even if it's still on preview builds for now. As drivers get refined, performance should only get even better. I wish they would support WiFi 7 on Win10 too, but seeing that Win11 is loosing market share to Win10 lately, I'm sure that Microsoft will keep it out of Win10 to try to push people to use Win11.

WiFi 7 has been properly supported on major eth adapters for like half a year now. We use public builds of Windows, not insider builds.

That is untrue, release 26036 is the 1st one to support WiFi 7, and it's not a main release yet (it will come inside 24H2): https://pureinfotech.com/windows-11-build-26063-wifi-7/ Current Windows 10 and 11 work as WiFi6E EHT, which is closer to WiFi 7 performance than normal WiFi6E, but not quite there. Check Intel latest driver note and you'll see this: The Wi-Fi 7 features are not currently available because of pending OS (Windows 11*) support. As a result, after installing the drivers, the Intel® Wi-Fi 7 products function with Wi-Fi 6E capabilities on Windows 11*. So... for now WiFi7 adapters can only work with the WiFi7 protocol using Linux or an "unstable" release of Windows 11. Anything else will be WiFi6E EHT at most.

Sure okay.

"As stated we tagged close to 3800 Mbps over two meters, that's almost 4x your gigabit ethernet jack in terms of throughput." My ethernet jack transfers at 10000 Mbps, which is 2.5x faster than this "fancy" Wifi7 in its best case scenario. Also, my ethernet jack can do that continuously, at any distance, with no interference, with no slowdowns. https://www.amazon.com/10gb-network-card/s?k=10gb+network+card Sorry, but Wifi still loses. Badly. Always did, always will.

Sure okay.

Yup, it is strange to see it showing as WiFi7 even if it's not working as full WiFi7 (unless you were using a Win11 version that does support it).
