Hi , in the wireless system log, under “mubf”, all my iPhone 13 are listed “no” Does this need all my iPhone 13 do not support mubf or mu mimo? Thx

Apple? Probably.
 
MU-MIMO and Beamforming are doing little to none in home environment and with moving around mobile clients. Apple knows this and doesn't bother implementing features with no practical use advantages. MU-MIMO works to limited number of devices only by cutting the number of streams to each device in an attempt to serve a few at the same time. With relatively small number of active clients on a home network it has no measurable positive effect on aggregate throughput. Perhaps only @thiggins can see differences in synthetic tests using special Wi-Fi testing equipment and with multiple similar specs clients. It's used mostly for marketing purposes in home routers. Don't worry too much about it.
 
Thx, but I checked that iPhone is compatible with mu mimo. Regardless of the little benefits, I just like to know that there is no compatibility with my devices. Any ideas how to activate it?
 
Optional feature used for data transmission increased reliability or range, but comes with throughput penalty. I don't even know if Asus routers support it.
 
I think Asus router supports it, it is in my wireless system log.. I am just surprised that the Samsung q80r tv with cheap Wi-Fi adapters have “yes” indicated on both STBC and MUBF, the IPhone 13 have “No” indicated on both…
