Describe the bug

I installed Windows 11 and updated Windows and the Wi-Fi drivers to the latest versions.

When I run a speed test on fast.com on my Framework laptop (Wi-Fi card: RZ616 Wi-Fi 6E 160MHz, driver 3.4.0.1335), I get:

• Download: ~350 Mbps
• Upload: ~2 Mbps

On the same network, my Google Pixel 10 XL Pro gets:

• Download: ~510 Mbps
• Upload: ~48 Mbps
  This suggests a severe upload performance issue on the laptop compared to other devices.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open a browser of your choice
2. Go to "fast.com"

Expected behavior

The down and upload speed should be more faster

Operating System (please complete the following information):

• OS/Distribution: Windows 11
• Version: 23H2 22631.6649
