Ubiquiti has released UniFi Network Application 10.1.85 – I’ve updated to it and everything is going smoothly. Regarding the update to my UXG Max Gateway, although I have seen some reports regarding issues with other models, everything is working well with mine but then again there are so many variables that could cause issues (not to mention that in the comment section people are running out of date software so I don’t think probably helps the situation either).

In the early release channel UniFi Access Point (all U7 and E7 models) 8.5.8 has been made available and it appears that they’re putting a lot of effort into getting MLO ready. On a side note, I couldn’t work out why Apple didn’t jump on the WIFi 7 bandwagon when they did their M5 refresh but I think it is probably in part due to wanting to make use of what ever Broadcom chips they have from their contract before moving to their own WiFi and Bluetooth chip and the second reason is probably due to the fact that MLO support is pretty half baked on many routers resulting in a less than stellar experience. For me, I have a 1GBps connection to the internet, the backhaul from the access point to my router is 2.5GBps and generally I’m connected to the access point on the 6GHz spectrum at 2.5GBps so I wouldn’t exactly get must benefit from MLO even if I had WiFi 7 on my Apple devices.
