Yeah, I just upgraded to a new laptop 18 months ago, it does WiFi 6 I think, the one that's popular for the Quest 2 headset anyway, and this is going to be my computer now for at least another 8 years, like the last one was.

Same with the router, which I upgraded to get that newer WiFi, and now it's going to sit there doing it's job for probably the next decade, because it does it well.

Maybe in 2032 I'll upgrade to WiFi 7, but there's no real need to do so until then, unless something really important that WiFi 6 can't handle comes along.
