Will the RS300 support MLO?

I just purchased the RS300 and did not realize that none of the literature mentions support for Multi-Link Operation.  I had recently purchased & returned the Asus RT-BE92U and the cheapest TP-Link BE230 after setting them up and both supported MLO.  Is it expected that the RS300 will eventually support MLO in a future firmware?  I can understand if the capability is still being fleshed out but I would expect it to support it for this much of an investment.
After seeing MLO in action, it's basically the main compelling reason for WiFi 7 as a 6Ghz signal doesn't offer much range or penetration while the ability to combine signals is very compelling.

    Yeah, we do work on MLO and plan to support MLO on all WiFi 7 routers, but we don't have a timeline to share.

    Thanks.

  • I am not asking for an ETA. I am simply asking if it will eventually get that feature because that is a selling point for Wi-Fi 7 for me.
    • NG doesn't give out informaton on when new FW or features will be released. If or when it does, you'll need to keep an eye on the product download site and look at the release notes for information on when new FW has with in.
