Strange behavior of 5Ghz channel
I have chosen channel 40 in 5Ghz spectrum, but after a day RAX40 always changes router to a worse channel 36 and then the speed drops from 2,4 Gbps to 1,2 Gbps on Wifi 6. Is this a bug?
Looks like that adapter is based off the intel chipset. Not sure how frequently tp-link updates it but intel updates theirs quite frequently.
another though is how far from the router are you?
Again, you might still be broadcasting on that channel as well but dropping from 160hz to 80hz width. potentially due to distance, interference, etc.
I live in Norway and use TP-Link Archer TX3000E on my intel X99 desktop. I used WifiAnalyser to find what channel is best for me, but it auto switching anyway

Yes, it's intel AX200 and I use latest driver 21.60.2.. I'm 3 meters from the router
