It depends not every WiFi 7 device comes with 6Ghz but WiFi 6E device is almost guaranteed to support 6Ghz

I am using BE200 wifi7 card which I believe has all 3 bandwidth on my PC (addin), but when I try use my Galaxy S23FE (WIFI 6E) as wifi hotspot I can only pair both in 2.4G & 5G mode but in 6G my PC cannot "see" the S23FE even when both are forced into 6G mode. Even when my phone is beside that PC, it still cannot detect. Any advice is appreciated.

I don’t think you can do hotspot on 6GHz

Forcing your phone on 6Ghz is only for when it’s connecting to a router or AP, nothing to do with hotspot

Thats odd, in Hotspot menu it seems I can also force to use 6GHZ from my Android
