The Linksys WRT3200ACM does not support WiFi 7, so it cannot work.

It supports WiFi 5 / IEEE 802.11ac.
However, WiFi devices are always backward compatible, so you should be able to connect to an AC network with your notebook.

Of course, this assumes that you are not using incorrect settings, such as incorrect channel settings (many WiFi devices do not like this at all).
