Any way to improve WiFi performance of Mac Studio M2 Ultra

I use a Mac Studio for WFH. I regularly have to transfer files to various cloud servers in excess of 1G. I noticed the Mac Studio was much more sluggish than my Mac Book Pro.

My plan with my ISP has speeds reaching the modem in my house at 700Mbps, (tested and verified by ISP) yet I am only getting download speeds of 80Mbps with the MacStudio's WiFi connection. My MacBook Pro from the same desk, exact locations, consistently hits download speeds of 350Mbps.

Can anything be done to improve the wifi performance of the MacStudio?

Poorly shielded high speed USB cables, drives, devices and even displays can cause Wi-Fi interference.

As a test:

Disconnect any none essential USB devices and make sure that the essential ones are not in the line of sight between the Mac Studio and Wi-Fi router.
