Asus TUF Gaming BE9400 - WiFi 7 Router and Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz

Is there a fix for the Asus TUF Gaming BE9400 - WiFi 7 Router and Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz issue? I only get about 50-80Mbps with this combination. I get 550Mbps with my $49 TP-Link Travel Router and the Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz, but the ASUS sucks. What's up with that?

Your problem is likely not the BE9400 but your Intel AC 9560. The Intel gets overwhelmed by WiFi 7 features in the BE9400. You need to upgrade the outdated AC tech. There are workarounds, but you will need to find what works for you. You can get an idea of what to try by googling "Asus TUF Gaming BE9400 - WiFi 7 Router and Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz issue". But, replacing the AC 9560 WiFi would be your best option.

Did you change the encryption to WPA2/WPA3-Personal? I think WiFi 5 only supports up to WPA2-Personal...
