When I do a wireless WiFi speed test on my Studio, it shows speeds well below what my 16 PM indicates. Any way to speed it up?

I had this issue when I first purchased my mac Studio in 2022. Drove me nuts until someone suggested I turn off Private Relay (Choose Apple menu > System Settings, click [your name] at the top of the sidebar, click iCloud, click Private Relay, then turn off Private Relay.) That solved the problem instantly. Give it a try and good luck.

The wi-fi channel is overloaded with electromagnetic noise and debris or there is overlapping. Change the channel.In the router settings in the “channel” window select the least loaded channel

Posting some "Fishrrman dumb questions":

Do you have ethernet available where the Studio is?
If so, why not just connect it via ethernet and never mind the wifi?
