MacBook 16 (2019) Wifi problems

[user307]

I'm currently facing some wifi issues with my MacBook Pro 16. Compared to my old MacBook Air I'm not getting the full wifi speed. Normally I should receive 50 Mbit/s instead I receive only 25 or max 30 Mbit/s. The current OS is Monterey 12.3. Does someone had similar issues in the past? Happy about any tips 🙂

And it will be quite reasonable to check for VPNs, proxies. and apps/services/plists running on background

Hi @appltech do you mean simply deleting the current network connection and create a new one?

Also not quite sure on how to identify VPNs or proxies. Do you have a link to an extern resource? Thanks for the tip 🙏
