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 feel like a majority of tech has been in this rut for a while. CPUs, GPUs, audio, wifi, 4g VS 5g, screens/tvs, etc. all seem to provide the most incremental upgrades each iteration. For a while phones seemed to be making leaps and bounds, but feel relatively the same generation to generation now.

      I think the main area I feel like I’ve seen some movement is battery tech. Some new materials and better/longer batteries are making some movement, but tech hardware feels relatively static the past decade or so.

        I mean at least batteries is one of the main areas where improvements will make big improvements. Even when GPU’s double in power, I can barely see the difference in graphics. For my computers, the only thing that seems to matter any more is how much RAM and disk I have free…
