People are disappointed with wifi 7 are disappointed because TP link rushed out devices that were not ready for market, and have a high hardware failure rate. All the other manufacturers rushed to compete, and reliability and features are lacking. I tried a wifi router from TP Link, Netgear, and Asus. They were all garbage in one way another. The TP Link (BE19000) was great until it just died, couldn't hold a signal after 2 months. The Netgear(RS600 and rest of RS line) forces you into a paid DNS service if you want to run a VPN on it, the Asus RT-BE92U has a horrendous UI and firmware that crashed it daily as well as micro connection drops regularly.

You can get a much cheaper router that can do 2.5G. So would say its overkill for even 2Gig. Also what features? It does not really have any features other than its hardware. Software on Netgear is pretty barebones.
I just moved from Canada to the US and got spectrum Internet as it’s the only thing available in my area. I decided to buy a Netgear Nighthawk RS90 that’s on sale at Amazon for $99. It’s a wifi 7 dual band router and works well (mind you I only have 5 devices connected and 7 when me and my girlfriend are home). Also comes with an app!
The RS600 is the only router on that list that has 6ghz and faster than 1g wan/lan ports, there are cheaper options available.
If money not an go to Netgear and look for the nighthawk 3000sqft or get a mesh wifi
ASUS, got better UI on the app as well. I used to have Netgear
