The wifi speeds on my 2018 MBP w Touchbar 13” are ridiculously slow. On my other devices in the same room on the same network, the download speed is around 35mbps(not great i know). These other devices, phone and ipad, work fine though. Websites load fast and youtube can load videos very quickly. But web browsing in my MBP is horrible, youtube won’t even load a 144p video all the way at times. Any ideas? Could my Satechi usbc dongle be interfering? At a loss here

I suggest to try without dongle connected to your MBP.
The USB 3.0 noise can have an impact on wireless device performance.
Can you share your WiFi parameters? (Hold the Option key and click the WiFi icon in your menubar)
