Why is Wi-FI 7 6ghz still not a thing?

My ROG phone 7 is still unable to connect to WIFI-7 6 GHz even though my country has enabled 6GHz wifi according to this:

1) https://www.imda.gov.sg/resources/press-releases-factsheets-and-speeches/factsheets/2023/imda-to-all...

and

2) https://www.wi-fi.org/regulations-enabling-6-ghz-wi-fi

Please enable 6ghz for ROG phone 7 in Singapore, thank you!

It appears you're facing an issue with your ROG Phone 7 not connecting to the 6 GHz band on Wi-Fi 7, despite Singapore officially enabling this frequency range. According to the references you've shared from IMDA and the Wi-Fi Alliance, 6 GHz Wi-Fi is indeed permitted in Singapore. This suggests the limitation might be due to regional software restrictions on the device itself. In such cases, ASUS may need to push a firmware update to enable 6 GHz support for users in Singapore.

Well, thats the whole point of my post lol.

I was trying to bring awareness to the Asus mobile team to push for a firmware update to allow us to use 6 GHz Wi-Fi and neither the Mod or the Asus team members said anything yet.

Honestly, I don't know if I should upgrade to Asus ROG 9 or 10 if this keeps up ngl, the after-sales service is quite terrible for such a massive company.

Hello @TsukuyomiX 
I have forwarded this issue to the dev team, thank you for bringing this to my attention.
