    Upgrading from RT-AC68U: RT-BE88U or RT-BE92U or other?

    Given my experience with WiFi 7, and the availability of kit which can make use of it, go for WiFi 7 if you have money to burn.

I've got a RT-AXE16000 as another AiMesh node, and a GT-BE98 (not yet running Merlin), as my main router. Backbone connectivity between them is via Devolo boxes and I'm getting ~1Gbps between them.
