In lab testing, Intel and Broadcom have announced that they have achieved WiFi 7 connection speeds in excess of five gigabits per second. This heralds the dawn of a new protocol that's expected to officially launch by the end of 2023 and which promises to facilitate new uses.
While many have not yet had the chance to take advantage of WiFi 6, the next generation of the wireless communication protocol is already on the way. In theory, WiFi 7 promises speeds of up to 46 Gbps, nearly five times faster than WiFi 6. Although speeds will be much lower in practice, they should be able to meet the growing needs of internet users.
