I thought I read somewhere that the iPhone 17 Pro Max will be able to connect to Wi-Fi 7?
I have the iPhone 17 Pro Max connects up to Wi-Fi 6 no issues. My router definitely is capable of Wi-Fi.7
as I do have multiple devices that connect wifi7
I have reset the network settings no difference
even went to the extreme of a factory reset but still will only connect wifi6
would appreciate any suggestions or input on this

The WiFi 7 specification was not published in its final form until July 22nd of this year.
It is likely that your router is using an earlier draft specification that isn't fully compatible.
Contact the manufacturer. There may (should) be an update available to bring it into compliance with the final specification.
Here’s what Apple lists as the specs,

My first step would be to contact the support team for the router. They may have already addressed the issue on the exact same hardware you have. If they’re stumped, contact Apple Support.
