I changed my old wifi adapter Intel 8265 with Intel AX 210 6E, on my laptop.
I have installed the latest driver from Intel's page and my router is ax type.
Downloading torrents, i observed that the speed is slower on AX 210 6E than Intel 8265.
8 mb/s with Intel AX 210 6E vs. 30-35 mb/s with Intel 8265.
Do you have any idea about why is happening that?
Thank you!

Hello SSC,
Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.
I am sorry you are having issues with your Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210, I will be glad to help you.
Since you have installed a new wireless adapter, please read the following article about Regulatory Information Regarding Wireless Hardware Installation or Upgrade (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005687/wireless.html).
Please follow these steps:
- Perform a clean installation of the latest wireless drivers (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19351/windows-10-and-windows-11-wi-fi-drivers-for-intel-wireless-adapters.html). Make sure to follow the clean installation steps here https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000022173/wireless.html
- Make sure there are no Windows updates pending.
- If not already, apply the recommended settings for 802.11ax standard (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000057574/wireless.html)
- Verify if the laptop's manufacturer provides drivers for this wireless adapter model.
- Try resetting the router if you have not already.
Lastly, can you please confirm if this happens no matter to what network is the laptop connected to?
Best regards,
Steven G.
Intel Customer Support Technician.
