tl;dr - I'm a silly sausage.
Tbh you've actually done me a favour. I have been agonising about upgrading my APs for a while now and your experience reaassures me that I probably wouldn't see much of a boost if I did! It does sound to me like your new APs are acting as should be expected.
Stonehedge-
Yeah I'm getting up to about 700Mb/s real world now that the AP isn't in the same room, sometimes a bit faster. Wouldn't be worth upgrading for about 200Mb/s, although you can get faster WiFi 6 APs/routers.
I knew that but am bought into Unifi, like the features and more importantly stability/reliability.

Ta. Although you don't need to now!
Just worked out why desktop was getting 802.11ac not ax speeds - as a Hackintosh it only supports ac. Restarted it as Windows 10 and I've got ax now. Did a speedtest, got 560mb/s ish which is the fastest I've seen so far.
Lazily and stupidly I've been using the Google speedtest that comes up if you google broadband speed test.
Just tried broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk - 756mb/s. Speedtest.net - 814mb/s.
tl;dr - I'm a silly sausage. But I'm glad my U6 Lite is behaving!
