Super slow wifi on Mac mini M1

Could you click on the WiFi icon with the Opt key pressed, snapshot and post here please?

It’s measuring a weak signal (RSSI -85), should be 60 or less. My guess is interference from the monitor. Try moving it further? Or move the desk to another area in the room (just for testing).

MacBook’s weak too, looks like your Speed Test app is messing around. I wouldn’t trust it anymore. Irrespective, everything points to the router, try kicking it (power restart).

👍

No, it’s the router. Is it ISP-provided? If so, buy your own and hook it behind the ISP modem, should improve things considerably.

They’re both showing a very weak signal, no need to look beyond that. I’d say you need a new 5G router, or better a wired ISP connection copper/cable. All the best!

You have the option of swapping the router…I get 1300 Mbps and my mini isn’t even in the same room.

You don’t need 5G, you already have one. Plug the new router to it and let it serve WiFi.

You’ve got it all mixed up. There isn’t and never was a “Mini M1 being a 2018 model”. I easily get sustained 1300 Mbps on my 2018 mini, that too with the router in the adjacent room. Have a nice day.

Your “conclusions” are all speculation which is against forum rules. You haven’t even gotten your mini serviced. Do that and you’ll have a better idea on what’s wrong.

You heard it on the internet? Like so many others? Then it must be true thank you 😁
