Good wired speed but poor wifi speed - Nighthawk RAX120 AX6000
Hi, RAX120v2 firmware V1.2.9.52 I replaced my old (but reliable) AC1900 R7000 router for a newer RAX120 AX6000 around a year ago. I have two wired connections to my office laptop and son's g...

They go for the "best" signal. If 5 GHz (or even 6 GHz if your router supports it) is strong enough, the client will connect to that.
2.4 GHz is slower but has a longer range, so clients may switch from one to the other as you move around. Most of my 5 GHz kit sticks to that, but I have an MK93 Mesh system.
Devices that are 2.5 GHz only will, of course, just connect to that.
Just another user with time on their hands.
