Where has it taken off ? Only a handful of routers are out for it and they are stupidly expensive. Are there even devices that can utilize wifi 7 ?

Maybe a flagship here and there and a high gaming computer

I don't think most people are on 802.11ax/WiFi 6 yet. I'm using the ISP-provided Eero equipment and it's 802.11ac and perfectly fine for me. The last piece of hardware I bought for myself years ago was an ac combo device and it's been working great for whatever random purpose I have. I don't think anyone is clamoring for more.

I think what most people need for improvement is better meshing and mesh roaming.
