R6400v2 timeouts under 5GHz load

Hi all, I am using r6400v2 router with latest firmware. I performed factory reset after upgrading. When I start using 5GHz network it would loose packets because of timeouts. 2.4GHz is a lot better...

I am using 44 channel where, according to android app, is one more wifi running, so that should not be a problem. Changed to 56 without improvement.

IPv6 disabled.

V1.0.4.126_10.0.102 firmware.

It's connected to ISP modem - GPON ONT H640G

I believe that the issue was not as much noticeable before, but I often had issues with wifi.

Strangely 2.4GHz/LAN network works as expected.

My test is:

- Keep ping 8.8.8.8 -t in the background

- Start speedtest

- Once speedtest starts there are Request timed out messages in the terminal

- Once speedtest completes, there are no request timed out messages in terminal.

I did factory reset and I can't select anything more than 140 if limiting the bandwidth to 289 Mbps

    Do you have it set with the EU region? you should have more channels available with that region.
