Macbook pro has slower wifi than my other devices

Hi everyone,


After the recent OS update, my Macbook pro has a slower wifi download speed on the speedtest websites than my other devices.


I am currently getting around 300mb/s on my iphone, whereas im getting 60mb/s on my macbook pro 2020 13" (not the m1) in the same area.


I'm not sure if this helps, but i had 100mb/s internet until a few days ago and switched over to 500mb/s but all my other devices seems to be able to utilise the new speeds apart from my macbook.


Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks



MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.0
