Wi-Fi 7 routers promise game-changing speed, lower latency, and more stable connections. All thanks to features like Multi-Link Operation (MLO). But do these routers actually deliver on everything their marketing promises? We tested the MLO capabilities of 25 routers to see if the hype is justified, or if it’s all just marketing.

I upgraded because my local system’s storage is all(mostly) server-side. Having 10Gb vs 1Gb(or 2.5Gb) is noticeable when loading things like games or image/language model weights. I’ve been considering getting the hardware to bond 2 connections, but I don’t imagine that I’d see much noticeable performance improvement (but the benchmarks would look pretty!)
That makes sense. I have a NAS but I use it more for backups
Just throw up an NFS export and use fs-cache: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/caching/fscache.html
It works pretty well, the only annoyance is if your NAS isn’t on it is pretty annoying but that rarely happens (unless a failed upgrade nukes both your graphics firmware and the package manager at the same time and you have your server’s USB ports disabled for security reasons so fixing the problem requires disassembling your server cabinet, server case and extract the hard drive to which you need to grab hard copies of recovery from a safety deposit box… in which case, chin up… it happens to all of us. x.x;)
Oh I know it’s possible, I just don’t want to do it, I have enough troubles in my life ;-)
