Wifi is slower than my Windows install

Very new user, first post here, as the title says, my wifi works slower in Manjaro than in my Windows install. My ISP provides 30mbps speed (ik its bad) and i used to get around 27-29mbps on Windows, but it Manjaro, the speed does not go above 8mbps. Any help is appreciated

Please tell us a bit more about your system. Please read and post inxi output:

Drivers for WiFi adapters is usually optimized using the system.

Linux drivers are more generic and may require tweaking for optimal performance.

What exactly is required is impossible to say - it may be anything but as wifi and bluetooth usually is the same card - disabling bt sometimes does the trick.

Here’s a long read.
