For some reason, my laptop, with the RTL8821CE network adapter, has super poor performance on my 2.4Ghz network. My ISP plan allows up to 400Mbps. Wired, I get over that on my desktop. On this laptop, I get 200Mbps wireless on the 5Ghz network (is this acceptable? 50% reduction due to wireless?). On the 2.4Ghz network, I get like 20-30Mbps. On a laptop right next to it, I get 60-80, even going thru vpn. I use a Netgear Nighthawk R7400 router, and the signal is strong.

I've upgraded the driver via the HP Support Assistant, although it didn't do it until a diagnostic was run, not thru the driver update check, go figure. I've rebooted the router, modem (especially since I just upgraded yesterday.....so I have no idea if problem was before that or not as I usually leave on 5Ghz network). I've run diagnostics, etc, etc, etc. Any ideas what the problem could be?

My current driver is version: 2024.0.10.220
