Running a Dell Thin Client that has the Intel chipset so using iwlwifi. I am also running kernel 6,6 as this is the latest kernel that lets you set the eeid for the monitors at boot as one of my monitors doesn’t get detected properly. Anyhow, I am using NM under KDE and all of a sudden I lost my internet speed as it went down to 200 KBps. I then used my phone as wifi hotspot and I went back to 200MBps. My computer is in the room about 7 feet from my router with nothing in between. I was surprised that 2G Hz would go to 200KBps making unusable. After a good half day messing with it. I figured 2G was the problem and hard set the channel to 5G Hz. Has anyone else seen this? Just happened out of the blue today while I was a on Zoom call which naturally ruined it.
