Did anybody with samsung s25 phones figure out how to connect to wifi 7
I had a s25 ultra which when connected only shows wifi 6. I now get a s25 and im only seeing wifi 6 went to the lab and wifi 7 is turn on so is there something im not doing?
I notice something the region of my router says united States, I am in the Caribbean would that affect the 5g network not connecting on my samsung? But yet it connects on other devices ?

Most islands are the same as US (FCC), Dutch and French islands are the same as Europe (ETSI). Either way, channel 44 is available in all countries, so geography is not a factor.
intelligent wifi doesnt seem it has an option to toggle on and off..
Google says
- open Settings, tap Connections, select Wi-Fi,
- tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner,
- choose Intelligent Wi-Fi
Yes I know exactly where it is and thats what google showed you where it is. But as I stated there is no toggle to turn it on nor off

Are there controls there that modify how it works?

Nonsense, sorry. A single common 5 GHz channel isn't enough. On one hand, the backhaul on 5 and 6 GHz (is this DFS now?) requiring at least 160 MHz bandwidth, and then the front end, which does again require yet another 160 MHz bandwidth.
Sure location is a factor here: ETSI and FCC systems don't co-operate as we perfectly see on the OP case.

TOPS119 - did you have this problem before Netgear told you to reset the router 5 ghz wifi channel to channel 44? Does changing it to "Auto" make any difference?
They change to those channels because auto gave slow speeds even after the reset. So auto made no difference
