The power of two: Multi-Link Operation
Orbi WiFi 7 taps both 6GHz and 5GHz WiFi bands at once to avoid network traffic and keep you connected if you move out of range of one band. It also enables devices to simultaneously send and receive data across both WiFi bands, increasing throughput.
Outsmart WiFi interference: Preamble Puncturing
Did you know your neighbors' WiFi might be slowing your network down? With previous versions of WiFi, any channels with interference become unavailable. Orbi WiFi 7 includes smart interference management, greatly reducing network congestion.
