https://bugzilla.kernel.org - I/O storage - serial ATA (I guess, I don't know which component would be ultimately in charge here)
There're also reports all over the net that power saving on SSDs causes data loss, so adaptive behavior may be disabled for AC plugged systems because of this.

I've opened the notebook and temporarily rerouted the antenna away from the ssd. Network scanning now works as expected even with max_performance.
I guess I have to find a new place for the antenna, for now it's protruding out of the chassis... Lol

Ok, I've found a better place inside the chassis. Now the behaviour is pretty consistent and the throughput also increased to 12MB/s. Not bad. :-)
Thanks for helping me out, Luebking.

My pleasure - but I barely did anything beyond maybe holding your hand =)

Do you mean that the wifi scanning occurs automatically when we click on the network connections applet in the system tray? Don't we have to click on the "refresh" icon inside the applet?

His comment is a copy from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1067677 - likely a bot, building a fake account for further action.
The post has nothing to do with this topic - like the other two he made today.

Not an admin, but just reported the post (usually I just add these guys to my foe list, because it's not sure what their ultimate intention is when necrobumping with generic posts, sometimes even duplicating former posts of the thread)
