MBP 14" 2021 wifi tx-rate max 866Mbps

Why is the wifi on my new MacbookPro 14inch 2021 not faster then 866Mbps.

My old MacBook Pro (mid 2014) is getting on the same wifi (standing on the desk) at tx-rate 1300Mbps?


They are connected to the same Wifi access point.

Both are on 5Ghz and on the same channel. I don't see any difference between the two MBP's.


Is there a setting I missed?

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

Greetings rneve72,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you have an issue with the Wi-Fi speed on your Mac. If you haven't already, use Wireless Diagnostics to see if it reports any issues: Use Wireless Diagnostics on your Mac


To help isolate and narrow our focus we'll also want to test this while using safe mode. Here's more information on safe mode and how to start there: How to use safe mode on your Mac


After noting the results of safe mode, restart your Mac normally to exit, and we'll then create a new user account to test. Please do not use the Guest account. This will let us know if the issue is with your account only, or system-wide: Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac


Let us know the results and have a terrific day!
