My new laptop was getting really slow internet speed (3-5Mbps where is should be 200+ Mbps) via my NighthawkTri-band Mesh WiFi 6 System (MK83 / MR80). Other devices wired and wireless connected at full speed. Tried many things troubleshooting. Finally connected to the guest network and it connected fast. Went back to main wifi connection and it was slow again. The nighthawk app listed 58 devices. I removed a bunch dropping below 50 and now my laptop speed is fine???
