[RESPONDED] Slow 2.4GHz wifi on Ubuntu 22.04 and AMD

I’ve tried Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian 12 on this laptop. Connecting to 5GHz works perfectly, but 2.4GHz is barely usable.

    Interface: wlp1s0
    Signal strength: -59
    Signal quality: 59
    Signal bars: ▂▄▆_
    Wi-Fi Speed: 270 Mbit/s

It’s not really a huge deal since 5GHz works well. The router is a TP-Link Archer AX50.

Welcome to the community!

We don’t test against Debian, however, we do have a pretty decent community resource available.

Since you’re experiencing issues on Ubuntu as well with 2.4GHz, I would be interested to see what kind of saturation is happening on 2.4GHz.

That said, if you’re getting decent results with 5GHz, then there may be wifi network considerations happening.

If you’re able test 2.4GHz at another location, this would give us a better comparable especially if the performance differs.
