Quite simply the best Wi-Fi 7 mesh for most homes right now, the Orbi 770 Series is easy to set up and use, delivers stable and speedy performance, and boasts expansive coverage. It's the sweet spot in the Netgear lineup for most folks, and a great way to step up to Wi-Fi 7. This tri-band mesh offers three bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz) as a unified network that's available for devices and as backhaul (traffic between the main router and satellites).
This year's newest iPhones included one momentous change that marked a new phase in the evolution of Apple Silicon: the Apple N1, Apple's first in-house chip made to handle local wireless connections. The N1 supports Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and the Thread smart home communication protocol, and it replaces the third-party wireless chips (mostly made by Broadcom) that Apple used in older iPhones.
The platform will provide tenants with a private, secure network that enables seamless roaming within the entire property. In addition to Wi-Fi 7, the platform consists of a 3 Gbps bulk internet service and what the press release says is an easy way for residents to connect. GFiber says the Wi-Fi platform, which will roll out next year, will offer operational efficiencies and monetization opportunities to providers. The platform will offer automatic onboarding through the Quext app, which eliminates the need for residents to schedule installations or wait for technicians.
You won't just get better wireless coverage; in many cases, it'll save you a few bucks a month in rental fees.

The Orbi 370 is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 mesh kit aimed squarely at everyday households.
The Asus mobile app gives you a surprising amount of control over your Wi-Fi settings without having to dig into the even more detailed admin panel.

If you want added security or parental controls, Asus offers those with no additional monthly fee.
Federated Wireless and Cisco have successfully validated and deployed Standard Power Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 in enterprise environments across the US and Canada. Putting their move into perspective, the private wireless and shared spectrum services provider and the networking and IT giant noted that enterprises and venues have historically struggled to deliver reliable, high-capacity wireless connectivity in outdoor and high-ceiling environments - such as college campuses and stadiums - due to spectrum congestion and limitations on 6GHz Wi-Fi deployment.
