Bootcamp Wifi Extremely Slow - 2019 MacBook Pro 16" - Can't solve

I've been having an issue in Bootcamp in that wifi speeds connected to either 2.4GHz or 5GHz networks are excruciatingly slow.


I have 1GBps service and not getting anything remotely in the universe when connected via wifi through Bootcamp. In Mac OS - all is well.


I have done all that was suggested in my original post and other research I have gleaned from others having similar issues with the 2019 MacBook Pro 16", but none worked. I have reinstalled Windows three times and have attempted to disable/uninstall the network card in Windows and install original Bootcamp drivers but to no avail. Disabled AX on my router. Same issue. Can't rollback driver either.


I am attaching the following screenshots in hopes this can provide any new suggestions.


Any help would be most appreciated.

Isengard? Mordor? Do I need a Palantir now. 😜


Your WiFi card has the same PID/VID as a 2018/2019 13-in MBP. The version/FWID is different.


As a test,


  • Create a Windows System Restore point
  • Use Brigadier (https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier) to download the BC driver package for a 2019 13-in MBP (Model Identifier: MacBookPro15,4) using the '-m' qualifier
  • Try to install the Broadcom driver and test
  • If it does not work, rollback to the Restore point
