Best Wi-Fi Routers for 160 MHz support

4.2

160MHz channels can provide a large speed boost, with one test reaching about 1.3Gbps. Dynamic availability and interference conditions mean the gain is environment-dependent.

Pros: VPN client support, value for money

Cons: 6 GHz performance, USB storage sharing

1.3

The M7 does not deliver 160MHz operation on 5GHz, a limitation that materially holds back its Wi-Fi 7 performance.

Pros: eSIM flexibility, cellular connectivity

Cons: interface responsiveness, Ethernet port count
