I see the number 6 next to the wifi on my S20FE when it connects to the Airtel fiber modem.

I hope this will push for wired networking to be phased out completely, and be replaced by clutter-free wireless networks. The more we bathe in EMF radiation, the better we will be able to collaborate with each other and arrive quickly at a cure for cancer!

What would be the cheapest wifi 7 routers with 6ghz then?

It'd probably be TP Link or their sister company Mercusys.
TP Link already has a WiFi 7 mesh router available in India, but that one does not support 6Ghz.
After it is legalized they should roll out more products.

WiFi 7 with 6ghz would be a game changer due to MLO.

Many consumer electronics still don’t have wifi 7. Even apple in pretty late in the game and only offering 6E in macbooks.

Yes.
But I was replying to someone who wanted to know why WiFi 7 was a significant upgrade.
I was talking about the technology, not its current deployment.
