I just received my 14" M1 Pro and I'm having an issue with Wi-Fi speeds when Bluetooth is on. With Bluetooth on, the new MacBook tops out around 40mbps sustained download speeds, while the Intel machine it's replacing and an iPhone 13 Pro easily reach above 300mbps (all on the same VHT80 5GHz network). Signal strength and SNR in the room I'm in is good (see screenshot) and has not changed recently.
When I turn Bluetooth off, either by entering Recovery mode or turning it off via System Preferences (not Control Center, I wonder if it's doing that "disable new connections but keep the chip on" thing iOS does), speed tests show 550mbps+ download speeds. Once Bluetooth is turned back on, that crashes back down to 40mbps. Ethernet runs at full speed regardless (>1gbps on my Xfinity Gig plan).
Anyone have a similar issue or a solution to it?
