@AXJ The old 6 stuff will see the SSID for MLO but won't be able to take advantage of the new things implimented for wifi7. I have my MLO as a seperate SSID.

I've found that Google Home from a phone on normal/MLO network has problem finding units on the IoT network. To connect and control I need to put my phone(s) on the same network, dont remember having this behaviour before? +30 units on the IoT network on the 2.4ghz band. Spotify Connects also seems extremly slow connecting. Routersettings more or less out the box with 2,4gbz IoT, "normal" network and MLO for my 4 Wifi7 Clients. Totaly + 40 units in all.
Bought this router when it was on its first firmware, always having trouble with IoT units disconnecting from network but not communicating when they are connected.
