WiFi 7 Router Repurposed as 320Msps Software-Defined Radio

Original: Turn a WiFi 7 Router into a 320Msps Software Defined Radio Receiver

A developer has published a project on GitHub showing how to turn a WiFi 7 router into a software-defined radio receiver capable of sampling at 320 million samples per second. The approach exploits the router's radio hardware and driver access to repurpose consumer silicon for wideband RF reception at a fraction of the cost of dedicated SDR equipment.

Why now: Hardware hackers are excited that cheap consumer WiFi 7 chips can outperform expensive dedicated SDR hardware.
