RAX120 Speed drops from 600-700 Mbps to 6 Mbps when using 802.11ax
So I have an issue where if I use any network adapter that has 802.11ax the speeds will just randomly drop from normal 600-700 Mbps to around 6 Mbps and in reality it really isn't even that as almost...
Yeah, my drivers for the AX200 are the latest available:
21.70.0.6
I have not yet done a factory reset, that is a huge pain to get everything set back up.

it is a pain to setup everything again. But the RAX devices were manufactured before the AX spec was even finalized. They've responded favorably to full factory resets and manual installs. Sadly, its kind of the price you pay to be on the forefront of technology.
I guess, but I waited a year after this was first released before buying to hopefully have some of the bugs worked out, you know like being able 802.11ax actually working
So last night I went and did a factory reset. 802.11ax still has major slowdowns, so basically that didn't help at all.
Try downgrading the firmware a version. I've read of others having issues with the most recent version.
NordicBastrd, as a test, it may be beneficial to check if the problem occurs with other AX devices (e.g., a iPhone 11 Pro you or a friend might have available).
If the problem is isolated to the Intel AX200 network adapter, then that suggest that the root cause of the issue is with the Intel adapter and not the Netgear router.
