    If you really want to see the WiFi difference and test different bands/channels you can try installing iperf3 on your WiFi router or another wired system directly to your WiFi router. I run iperf3 on a Wifi router that’s running openWRT. It can help you tune that WiFi not only for internet speed but local network file transfers.

      @GadgetReviewVideos yes good point. I did actually play with that on my truenas server and it delivered nearly identical LAN wifi speed as just the simple SMB transfer I showed in the video.

    Gigabits per second, not megabits per second - for the theoretical maximum on the Wi-Fi 7 card.

    Wire up that desktop. WiFi 7 is nice but it has limited range and will never be as fast nor stable as the Ethernet. The prices on WiFi 7 APs and routers are criminal as well…

      @curtispavlovec I would've agreed with you before this test but I had ethernet ran over the floor as a test and then this wifi 7 (or 6E based on my AP) and saw no difference in speed, stability or ping! Easy choice for me to stay wireless.

    All I know is 2.4 gigahertz is absolutely useless except for using smart devices with. I still believe in antennas and cheap Wi-Fi routers do not perform better than $400 routers.

      @jamesm568 yes 2.4ghz is often much slower than 5ghz. Especially so on tp-link omada mesh for some reason like mine.

      @NaterTater I have the TP-Link Archer AXE300 as that is the best router I have ever owned and can handle over 8 plus wireless security cameras streaming 24/7 without having to reboot every week.
