Are 5GHz channel specifically channel 36-52 and 149-165 crowded? Your router had the capability of using DFS channel which could avoid crowded 5GHz channel but Deco X20 likely can't use DFS channel.

Deco series by default will only use 36-48 channel only. Is locked by firmware because of 'genius' management at Deco division think so to stick with only such channel without giving permission to end user to change

SMB file transfer is a TCP protocol and it scales horribly when high latency is involved. Your dual-band system is probably terrible at handling congestion.

Just do a ping test and see how high is your latency when you are transferring files.

Hence, that's why newer mesh Wi-Fi in the market focus less on raw speed but more on congestion management these days.
