RBR850 WiFi speed
Can anyone tell me the max link speed for the RBR850? I have just got a new router from my isp (Zyxel ex5601) so I have been having look at it, I am currently getting an aggregated link speed 12...

I believe this is correct that the RBR850 supports 80MHz wide channels and does not support 160MH channels.*
Not clear (to me) what the Zyxel supports.
Of course, the test device would also have to support 160MHz channels.
*The RBR850 is based on the Qualcomm IPQ8074A WiFi chip.
Although the Qualcomm web site appears to be messed up (no specs), this site has the following:

It might also depend on how many antennas the test device supports. (MIMO)
