BCM4360 very slow or no internet when my router 10 meters faraway.

Hi all,

for a long time with Fedora 32, 33 and now with Arch I have a problem, when I connect to my 10 meters faraway WiFi the internet will work for several seconds then became very very slow or no internet, if put the router near my PC  I will have internet, I searched a lot for solution but couldn't find anyone has the same problem.

I tested my PC on Windows and the WiFi worked great.

Best Regards

Thanks @andym changing channels didn't help but the problem fixed by changing Channel Width from Auto to 40MHz, thanks a lot for the help

I am sorry the Wifi worked great about 20 minutes then the problem back.
