I’m concerned that this article is AI SEO slop. It doesn’t say much about its central thesis, but just “delves” into the background of wifi for several hundred words.

OWE, which it mentions at the end is genuinely useful, reducing the drawbacks open networks had in the past.

To design the future, we need to know where to we come from and the evolution of it. It's been 8 years that I'm in this industry. I've begin with Wi-Fi 4 standard and we are now in Wi-Fi 7. 8 years ago, the Wi-Fi network was just a good implementation for your business. Now, it's the main communication medium and for most industries, it's a critical or vital infrastructure. The evolution of the design of the Wi-Fi infrastructure is changing all the time based on the evolution of Wi-Fi standards: "Should we implement 6GHz for our corporate environment ? But did I think about all my corporate device compatibility? How much it costs to replace all ? How much time it will take to replace my devices ?" These questions should be taken into account when we think about the future of Wi-Fi. We need to understand the benefits of each evolution and the approach we can take depending on our industry.
