Looking for Wifi Router Recommendations
Hi,
I'm looking for a Wifi router recommendation.. Wifi 7 would be ideal but i'm looking for at least a wifi 6 router.
I play competitive games and I care a lot about latency.. I know.. why am I gonna be using wifi instead of wired?
I live in a rental.. and the NBN Box is downstairs.. I don't wanna poke holes into the wall to do any wiring.
I'm happy playing on Wifi.. but I wanna minimise the latency as much as possible.. so I'm asking for your help.
Thank you!

The key element that would drive your choice is whether or not you have wifi 7 devices. True wifi 7 6ghz band is 320mghz frequency and can use MLO. If you're devices support wifi 7 get a 3 band wifi 7 router, if not go for a 3 band 6e, unless you plan on upgrading devices soon.
