Live demos are awesome to see. And when executed very well it is impressive. Arista Networks came to Mobility Field Day 11 ready to wow the delegates. With a Wi-Fi 7 access point in the room and a Google Pixel phone, they were able to show how MLO works in Wi-Fi 7. From their dashboard, it showed how the phone was associated to both 5 GHz and 6 GHz channel on a single access point. In addition to MLO, they also showed a demo of how puncturing would work. An interference source was synthetically created via software just to show one channel being removed but Wi-Fi still operating well. Check out the MFD11 video and be sure to look at the pcap Rowell was able to capture which shows the MLO information elements. Resources * MLO information elements PCAP
