I've measured this aprox. 2MB/s with my laptop, which is also using
FreeBSD 12.
Its having an Intel wireless 3165 card.

hi!
No, you should be getting more than 2 megabits/sec.
Whats the output of "ifconfig wlan0 list sta" ?

Hello community,
Im using a Wifi AP with an Atheros card now for quite some time,
since a
couple of FreeBSD revisions. I guess started back on FreeBSD 10(?).
My wifi AP seem to limit me to 2MB/s basically, which is pretty slow.
Im not sure if all my options are ok, or if there are some ways I can
tweak around it...
Is this a limitation of the current driver?
Would be very interesting to hear from someone who runs a similar setup
and has more speed/throughput than I do.
I only have this box with this card, cant really tinker a lot around
with other cards - and as I know Atheros is one of the drivers which is
better supported than others.
Back then it was quite hard to get 5GHz running correctly....
Some of my debug output, config files etc.:

As you can see Im using "country DE" - but this cant be the reason for
