I have 1 dir-x 1860 as you may have guessed

My problem is although I have 2 wi-fi 6 PCs, windows 10 shows the router using 802.11a protocol, I get the same speeds when using the normal router even when I am in the same room less than 2 feet away. The wi-fi card shows as wi-fi6 in windows description but it looks like the router isn't connecting as expected (may as well be using the old router) The 1860 does show a connection speed of 1gb to the internet. I'm not a complete newbie but know just enough to be dangerous

One of the wi-fi cards is set to force ax but that makes no difference either.
Many thanks for reading I hope you can enlighten me.
