Couple of questions.
What area/region are you in?
Are you using smart connect?
Are you connecting to the 2.4ghz or 5ghz stream?
What channels do you have set for 5ghz?
Have you used the most updated driver from intel? What one are you using?cc
the AX200 does connect at 160hz channels in a 2x2 configuration. The max connecting speed would be the 2400mbps in the 5ghz. The 2.ghz has the potential for 1200mbps connection. But to use those in 5ghz, the RAX120 has to use DFS channels. Are they available in your area? if you're in an area with active DFS channels, they might be disabled frequently and defaulting back to 80hz wide.
