minus-squareCharlie Fish@eventfrontier.comOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoAgreed. Not gonna buy this right now since none of my clients support WiFi 7 yet. But Ubiquiti is pushing this out faster than WiFi 6.
minus-squareJohnFoe@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoIt also looks like it requires a main network hub that handles 2.5GbE, along with the network cables (Cat6) to support it. The current UDM Pro SE doesn’t even support that with the Network ports. The standard and professional switches don’t even cover 2.5GbE. You would have to deploy Pro Max or Enterprise switches if you haven’t already. For me it’s a wait and see. Nothing in my network requires 7 yet or the speeds that 7 can push. Most can’t even really utilize 6E.
