Problems with 5ghz dead on the R720 after heavy usage

Have my R720 for a good 4 years now and no problems whatsoever.

But then, i bought a PICO4 VR HMD, that is Wifi6e and VERY hungry for bandwith. Using it on 5ghz AC with 160mhz wide channel, it was working just fine.

Then suddenly, the connection stalled and it´s 5ghz WLAN while it´s on and enable, simply don´t have any more power it.

It barelly managed to work at 200Mbps, while it was 1600Mbps just moments ago.

I´ve tried every single option avaliable, updated the R720 to the latest unleashed version put everything on auto or set the setting to no avail.

The POE injector is just fine too, providing 90w as always.

Do anyone have any ideas ? The HMD is fine, i´ve just tested it on another AP and it reached 2100Mbps in AX mode.

Thanks !

i will get the complete output asap.

Ok, so power looks good and AP is running on 4x4:4 (chainmask 15=4x4) spatial streams.

Power Consumption Status : 802.3bt5 Switch/Injector
Tranmit Chainmask: 15

Hi again Syamantakomer

I've recreated the SSID, 5ghz etc, all the features enabled.

Here is the dump of the "get station wlan32 list all" after 10 minutes of horrible gaming (i ran the command multiple times).

In the past, it maintained solid 866-1200Mbps, but now barely tops 400Mbps, staying the in ball park of 250Mbps ish.

I've also gathered the "details" of the Client (in this case my VR HMD):

 

Detail from the clientCan you infer something ?

Thanks for the effort ! 

Everything looks good on the AP size. TX chain is on 15 which means 4 spatial streams, no high TX retries, RSSI value is also good.

The only thing which is looking low is the RSSI on client device. It shows as 195Mbps which is low.

Is this AP running on gateway mode or bridge mode?
