Gigafast+ HUB MLO Non Functional

SChetal — Thu, 18 Sep 2025 16:38:28 GMT

So I just upgraded to Skys 5Gbps full fibre (won't go into all the issues I've had thus far) But I've noticed none of my wifi 7 capable devices are running on 5/6ghz combined like they should as a result of multi-link operations which is the defining element for the Wi-Fi 7 standard, anyone else noticed this as there doesn't seem to be a setting to enable it either via the app or in the router admin menu.

Now I'm hoping my current speed issues get resolved as I'm only hitting 1.6Gbps currently despite the service checker trying to say otherwise (tested with a cat 7 cable from the 10Gbps port to a pc with the same and only getting 1.7 at peak) but if the MLO isn't working then this simply isn't Wi-Fi 7 and will thus never properly support the speeds they claim it will except possibly at some stage via ethernet.

@SChetal MLO has nothing to do with the Ethernet connection!

Really I had no idea wonder why I mentioned 5/6Ghz bands...

The ethernet comment is made in regards specifically to the speed not about MLO and was being used as a baseline for the speed, [removed]

If you read the post I clearly state the ethernet comment was to confirm the speed the service checker was stating and has nothing to do with the fact multi link doesn't work on the new gigafast+ hub as intended.

I stated that no device on wifi is showing a 5/6Ghz connection they are simply staying connected on the 6ghz channel only which isnt multilink if you see below 0m on multilink
