Are there some settings I need to enable or change for the fix?

Smart Connect is disabled. Does this still happen if SC is enabled?
Is AX mode enabled under basic wireless settings?
Yes, AX is enabled. Can you disable AX mode for the 5Ghz radio and check again?
Is MIMO enabled?
MIMO is enabled.
Is IPv6 enabled or disabled?
IPv6 is enabled. Can you use a custom IPv6 DNS configuration instead of auto detected ISP IPv6 DNS...Cloudfare or Quad9 if you can input this please.
Any progress on this?

The only progress is sadly the lack thereof. Enabling the Smart Connect gave the same photo sending issues on 5Ghz. I only have the option of enabling/disabling AX (not for separate bandwidths as suggested), and that did not fix the issue... and the DNS change also did nothing.
At this point, I workaround the issue and force my phone to connect to the 2.4Ghz and can send them smoothly.Ok, let me see if I can get some more info on this. Thought this would have been fixed by now.
What brand and model mobile phone are you using and what OS is loaded on it?
