Can't connect to Wi-Fi 7 with TBE400E
Can't connect to Wi-Fi 7 with TBE400E
So, this is basically my question. Not long ago I bought Wi-Fi 7 router Cudy WR3600H. It can run 2.4GHz and 5Ghz (no idea if hardware can 6GHz, but probably not at least until it will be allowed in my country).
As adapter I bought TP-LINK TBE400E. It's also Wi-Fi 7, supports MLO.
To confirm at least something, I used moblie app WiFiman that highlighted, that my network indeed is Wi-Fi 7 and using MLO. The issue is that for some reason my Windows still uses protocol 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) instead of 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) when I connect to my network. I updated windows from 22h2 to 25h2. I installed the latest driver. I set network to use WPA3-Personal. But windows still for some reason uses Wi-Fi 6 protocol. I'm out of ideas why. I want to use MLO. Why can't I?
Just to clarify, netsh wlan show drivers shows that it supports 802.11be
P.S. Just now I noticed that there are different driver versions for different regions, but I have no clue right now which one I need. At the very least I see no warnings in the Device Manager.

@woozle FOR THE GODS SAKE
I downgraded my windows 11 to 22h2 and now it connects via Wi-Fi 7. The stupid part is that before I updated to 25h2 it didn't. But now I can't have the MLO or install the latest update of the driver :/
But may be staying at 22h2 is not as bad as following latest windows updates?.. Regardless, thanks for the help.
