Thank you so much for your screenshots. Much appreciated.
I confirmed with the development as well and have updated my thread to list the modifications in more detail.
@Kevin_Z I just upgraded and still seeing poor MLO performance, the same as before the update. Anything I can do to improve things? Normal Wifi speeds when not connected to MLO are fine. Have a 10Gbps connection so expecting something faster than the attached.
@Kevin_Z Attaching the latest speed test connected to the regular wifi network.
Unfortunately this is the only wifi 7 device I currently have. But my Macbook Air M1 can connect to the MLO network as well, attaching a screenshot for your benefit. Some initial observations it is faster and more stable on the mac, however it fluctates a lot starting off slow before gradually climbing with many fluctations in between.
