I am running an ASUS Chromebox2 with Ubuntu server 18.04. The Chromebox2 is connected to the wifi router right next to it over 2.4Ghz and my host is in the same network, also right next to the wifi router.

When typing into the shell over SSH I can see the characters appearing with a slight delay. When I plug the Chromebox into the ethernet port of the router, it's fast. However, in the longterm the Chromebox should be connected via wifi. How can I troubleshoot that problem?

My network related hardware details:

    Is it the hardware output of the Asus device? Which version of Ubuntu ? – cmak.fr Aug 29 '19 at 20:05
  • see that : https://askubuntu.com/questions/1034229/intel-dual-band-wireless-ac-7260-issues-in-ubuntu-18-04 – cmak.fr Aug 29 '19 at 20:07
  • Yep, it's the output of the ASUS device. The Ubuntu version is 18.04. – JJ Abrams Aug 29 '19 at 21:47
  • @cmak.fr Thanks for the link, but that didn't work. I appended the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf: options iwlwifi bt_coex_active=0 11n_disable=8 power_save=0 and then rebooted. I also turned off bluetooth. – JJ Abrams Aug 30 '19 at 17:55
