First off, what's the speed your paying for? and Second, yes Wifi 7 is currently the best but you can get similar performance on Wifi 6E, Third you should not rely on Wifi for streaming, It's possible but there's alot of variables that can change how good your connection is, along with every device you want to use will have to support Wifi 7 and MLO which even today not alot of devices support currently. This is a matter of good latency not raw speed. Find any router with good QoS or AQM and Use an Ethernet connection if possible. Which will basically tune your network so your roommate can stream and you can download games at the same time with like 5-8ms of latency.
I personally use a GT-AX11000 Pro which is an Wifi 6 Asus router that you can buy now for around $220 USD. I pay for 2000 mbps service and can get around 750 mbps over Wifi. And if you need more range just buy another aimesh compatible router and mesh them together, and bam. Of course this could be done by using other manufactures but this is the only system I've used for years and it's been performing great.
I agree. I have a gt-ax-11000 pro.
The parental controls are so much better than what I had with Linksys.
I wish I would have switched 5 years earlier.
Outside of my very first Linksys from 25 years ago, my ASUS gt-ax11000 has been a breath of fresh air after a long line of disappointing Linksys follow up devices.
Rt ax11000pro here they are good and easy to work with for a consumer if you are a real nerd you will want ubiquity and the rest I prefer to game than play with settings.
