Hi,

Are there any wifi 7 APs in the pipe?

It is very likely that *every* major vendor has WiFi-7 stuff in the pipe and will be proud to show them in the second half of 2023.

Which feature are you looking at that is not found in the actual WiFi-6E line? For me it would be multi-band connections but this would not stop me from buying 6E devices if I need them in the coming months.

How about AFC with standard power and outdoor APs of any type, be they 6E or 7...

This should be completely independent of 6E or 7. And it seems that at least in US it's quite near. For EU/Germany we probably have to wait much longer.

The final version of WiFi 7 (802.11be) is not set to be ratified as a standard until early 2024. Anything released up to this point is based on the draft version, which may or may not work with the final standard.
