I joined two devices to wifi network - an iphone 13 pro and a Windows 10 laptop
The iphone gets speeds of 100mbps + download / 20mbps up
The laptop is getting almost nothing at 0.45 mbps but gets 18mbps up?
Ive tried almost everything including
switching band
disconnecting the iphone
resetting the nighthawk
updating the laptop using another network
plugging in a ethernet cable directly
Does anyone have any advice? I suspect it must be a problem with the laptop side?
Please advise your laptop make and model and make sure the WiFi driver on yoru laptop is updated to the latest.
Please also advise your IPhone and Laptop connected to 2.4G or 5G WiFi.
Thanks

I have a similar issue but without the difference mobile / laptop. Although my MR5200 displays a full 4G+ signal and I have a 300mbit/s contract, I do not succeed with more than 1-2 Mbit/s in both download nor upload... I tried everything, reboot, reset, change settings. Nothing. And the very same SIM card works over 100 Mbit/s with a very cheap USB mobile router.
Any idea what the issue is?
