Can I get 8 GIGABIT speeds on WiFi 7?! 😈

I don’t think most people will realize how important it is to have a Wifi 7 review thats is not sponsored by any Wi-Fi router company. Thank you for doing it.

I don’t think people really care about those speeds anyway. I think nearly everyone would be happy with a reliable gigabit connection. Reliability is the big thing

It is insane that a $1700 product still nickel and dimes you.

I work as an engineer at a local ISP (also in Utah!) and I wish I could send this video to every customer that complain about slow speeds.

This is the most accurate and accessible "tech" video I have seen in SO long. I always go in expecting to find at least a few minor inaccuracies or oversights, but seriously this video is perfect lol. You covered every aspect of this topic that matters, made it as easy to understand as you can given the subject, and didn't cut corners or skip things in the process. Good job! I recently upgraded to 2.5Gbps for my WAN connection, went through almost the same steps (I haven't tried wifi 7 yet though), and encountered the exact same limitations (including needing to use the speedtest CLI haha). I really hope the Tier 1 and Tier 2 networks make upgrades and adjust peering arrangements soon to enable more consistent multi-gig throughput.

Listening to this, I was very confused to hear that Wi-Fi seven hadn’t been ratified when I thought it had been. Upon re-watching the video I saw the editors note in text. It would be hugely beneficial to have a voice over, even if a little bit ratty for updates like this, that’s hugely important. Otherwise I loved the video!

The laugh, the laugh! @ 5:14 is priceless! I love your videos, and often as well the sponsors products - Buying the Nexode Pro today. Thanks Snazzy, your videos are not only informative, but fun to watch. Stay Snazzy!

Finally Wi-Fi speeds I can properly stream movies on. I'll start of course with the works of Christopher NoLAN.

I believe an interesting use case is Wireless backhaul for mesh networks. Sometimes people can't (not really) or don't want to put cables between units, so its a good usecase for WiFi 7.

I notice WiFiman said you were on a 160MHz channel width. The Eero and that OnePlus both support the 320Mhz channel width on the 6GHz band, which is new with WiFi 7. You probably have to change that setting in the Eero. That should get you closer to the 8Gbps mark.

Rural Maine checking in: when we bought the new place over the summer, it was advertised to get high speed internet. By the current FCC definition. And, so it does! 25 mb/s down and 3 mb/s up. Yes, that’s MEGABITS. Later this year, we finally do get fiber, and 2Gb/s symmetric will be on offer. Honestly can’t wait. Have fun everybody else with non-FCC defined high speed internet

Very informative video. The production quality is amazing too!

The multi-band concurrent connection is the really game changer for wifi 7. Solid connection with no interruptions

you deserve so many more subscribers, this content is unmatched

Your WiFi/home networking/smart home videos are my favorite.

I heard about browsers being the limiting factor as you get closer to about 5gbit speeds a few years ago. Forgot about it cause it had no bearing on me at the time, but seeing this vid was a good reminder about something we will all start having to take into account as we move into faster ISP plans.

Thanks for the great content ! Seeing PopOS, i always was curious if an easy to use distro could be a chromebook competitor.

People in Switzerland be like “ what is he talking about, I have perfectly good Internet from my 10 giga bit fiber for $30 a month”

Very informative video, thanks :)
