The article is about how new products are getting support for Wifi 7, so probably none of your current devices.
My comment was more a rebuke at the headline than the article

The boosted speed is also beneficial for mesh networks, not just end devices.
Then you need APs that support it. It's not something that can be added by an update
That's basically CES in a nutshell. Nearly everything shown off won't be useful for years.
The headline seems to be targeted at dedicated Verge readers who know that AI is the current big buzzword at CES, they are likely a bit tired of it, and are interested in something that's not AI.
