well, I'm more behind concurrent channel usage.
- Sorry i dont understand what do you mean with that sentence?
Other visible or (WiFi invsible) 5 GHz clients active on the same channel set is what I guess.

The macbook works well on every channel. So i think it is what you've wrote earlier.
My windows laptop wifi card isnt using 4x4 80mhz so this maybe the speed problem.
I think i've either need a new network card for this machine or a access point with 160mhz channels. There are none (or not many) 4x4 capable adapters. The named Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200/AX210 is 160MHz, and 2x2 only.
