Hello, I have router ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 and MOBO ROG CROSSHAIR X870E HERO.
In router settings, I enabled WiFi 7 with MLO (Multi-Link Operation) Fronthaul for Clients (router is using the latest stable firmware):
And on Windows 11 Pro 24H2 (with all the latest updates installed), I am connected to this WiFi network:
According to the FAQ from Microsoft site (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/faster-and-more-secure-wi-fi-in-windows-26177a28-38ed-1a... I should see multiple network bands listed (i.e. both 6GHz and 5GHz), but I don't - which indicates, that my connection is not utilizing MLO feature. The standalone 5GHz WiFi connection works fine.
Windows reports that the MOBO is using chipset MediaTek® MT7927 (Filogic™ 380), which does support MLO (https://www.mediatek.com/products/broadband-wifi/mediatek-filogic-380), I have also installed the latest driver version from Asus site (nor does Windows update find any newer version).
Is there anything that I am missing? There is no any kind of Mesh WiFi, just one AP.
I don't know about the BE98 but on the first firmware update for the 98 Pro, they sort of changed the way you set the system up. I have never had any luck using the Guest Network Pro section to add an MLO network.
The way I did mine was to, after resetting, first set up the primary Wi-Fi 7 network. You appear to only be using two of your radios for your primary network where I use all four.
Once the main Wi-Fi 7 network is configured, I then opened the MLO tab on the Wireless page. From there, I set up the MLO and then turned it on. At that time, the IoT network was automatically created.
You can see from the attachment the symbol for the MLO network and that same network shows up in the MLO section also. Your Windows attachment shows you have the MLO capability.
