Strengths

Wi-Fi 7 support enables higher theoretical throughput and lower latency than prior generations.
1 × 10GbE port for multi-gig internet plans or a fast wired backbone.
Mesh-compatible, so coverage can expand later without replacing the core hardware.
Strong specification depth relative to its reference price.

Limitations

Dual-band only, which can mean more contention under heavy multi-device load.
