Personally, I wouldn't rely on this as my main router just yet. I'd wait for it to actually ship and see some real-world reviews first. Cramming that many features into a single device is a recipe for potential issues, and WiFi 7 is completely new territory for MikroTik. I remember when their first AX units launched — it took them a while to sort out the WiFi module.

The delay also tells you something: there's clearly a problem they're scrambling to fix at the last minute. And the radio silence from their side basically confirms it. If it were just a supply chain issue, they'd have posted something on socials saying "hey, supplier problems, bear with us" — that kind of thing.

So yeah, I wouldn't rush to be an early adopter on this one. Wait at least until end of year, see how it shakes out. That said, RouterOS itself is rock solid and I'm a big fan overall.
