MacBook offers significant performance advantages over Windows 11.
Hello, Your 5G tests are showing different results depending on the device and network settings. The MacBook Pro is connecting via Wi-Fi 5-802.11ac with a strong link speed, while your Windows 11 PC is using Wi-Fi 6-802.11ax with even higher speeds. The discrepancy could be due to hardware differences, signal quality, or network congestion. Checking the exact settings and environment might help clarify why the performance varies so much.
Hello, your setup includes an Intel® Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz chip with two antennas. You’ve noticed speeds above 350 Mbps before, but now it feels slower, especially compared to a less powerful MacBook that runs at around 200 Mbps faster.
It seems the issue might be related to the modem's chipset quality or the available bandwidth. (rough estimation)
I concur, variations in chipset like TX power settings on the chipset are certainly a viable option.
I've seen odd behavior on Windows also, like requiring a 160MHz channel to match the performance of my phone at 80MHz.
