Anyone know if the next BE98 Pro firmware upgrade is going to enable support for WiFi 7 MLO?

The Windows Insider forum has just released a new build which includes support for WiFi 7.  In order to see those options, a compatible system is necessary, so a new firmware is required to make the BE98 Pro compatible.  It would be helpful, if even a Beta version could be made available.

Thanks for reading.

The firmware appeared in the router only after I uncheck the Beta check box. I done the update but test it later

So reasons are idk why but since all my stuff is wireless mesh its been like super buggy on the newest firmware for the asus be98pro meshed up in my room. When i reverted my main router the gt axe160000 to that firmware it suddenly went from 5000 ping lag spikes to super stable so i didnt update it for now. And prolly my internet company cause new asus firmware buggy with it idk why but this has been working for me for a month and half now. If i had more 6 clients then id make the be98 pro main router but i dont atm. Wish i can just swap them and not loss all my stuff like pass and names

Got ya. I've got mine ethernet backhauled using the 10G ports on both ends. 

See its weird. I think my company i even wired them up and the asus routers were bugging but when i dropped the firmware to that old one i got now on. My man it suddenly working fine not sure why

Do you have anything hardwired into the mesh node? If so, try unplugging that and see if the connection stabilizes. I've seen that be an issue with certain network devices being plugged into the mesh node as well.

each mesh node besides the main router has a few things wired up. One has cameras. The zen has ps5 and xbox, and my router has my pc hooked. I even tryed nothing plugged up its really weird. But dumming down the firmware for the gtaxe16000 worked. I kept trying and suddenly worked. Most of the family has 5g stuff so i rather not make the be98pro my main router just yet. If i could wire everything up id be happy mesh wise

You can supposedly backup you AXE16000 configuration and restore it to the BE98 Pro.  Worth a shot...

The AXE16000 has problems with 6 GHz wireless backhaul and the BE98 Pro.  Once the situation happens, it is not easy to repair it.

I ran the early firmware with that router and just recently realized what was happening.
