It seems that Intel is gatekeeping WiFi 7 and I analyzed the options that we currently have.

    Honestly, I don’t know how the BE200 works and whether there’s a strict communication protocol only with Intel CPUs. I hope that’s not the case and a firmware update will widen its reach. As for why I don’t like this situation is that we only get one solution working with one platform. Qualcomm, apparently made it available for both (from what I could find on the web), but since the card is not in stock since maybe November, we’re stuck with what Intel wants to feed us. Sure, Intel can do whatever it wants, but it’s not really fair for AMD users. Edit: spelling.
