We hope Frazier is right and, in fairness, the IEEE has plenty of opportunity to mitigate potential problems on this project. However, dynamically changing the speeds at both ends of a network connection in a multivendor network could have serious consequences if it goes awry. If, like autonegotiation, one end changes speed and the other end isn't notified of the change, the link will stop working. The feature will also have to be built into new NICs at a low-enough cost to reap the energy benefits.

As we move closer to fully realizing the potential of Wi-Fi 7, it becomes evident that the RF, signaling, and throughput tests are not merely procedural checkpoints but the pillars of excellence in wireless communication.
With low earth orbit (LEO) satellites fast becoming the norm and 3GPP unifying telecom standards around the globe, the satellite IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M) sector ought to be looking at a bright horizon. But is this the case?
