You should see near 1300Mbps or over. What the highest connection rate supported by Apple for this Mac Book? My 2018 supports 1300Mpbs. I usually see around 700Mpbs speed results.

    Interesting...my download speeds are great (700+mbps) but upload cannot seem to break 200mbps.

     

    I checked my phones as well, 600+mbps download, ~150mbps upload.

     

    I'm not sure what else to try...maybe it is a bug in the firmware?

      Are wired speeds good on the up? 

       

      Is WMM enabled under Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings

      What are the current CTS values?
