'no HT' means 802.11g and SISO?
'HT' means MCS0-7 capable and MIMO capability?
'VHT' means up to MCS8 if 20 MHz bandwidth?
'VHT' MCS9 only with => 40 MHz bandwidth?

I have a
and a
MikroTik LHG 5 ac XL (RBLHGG-5acD-XL)
about 15 feet apart and, still, they link at 54.0 TxMbps.
I get better throughput on my 13.5 mile 802.11n link: My MikroTik RouterBOARD LHG 5nD will link with both 'ac' devices with TxMbps => 57.8.
So my 802.11ac devices are receiving 802.11n speeds from my 802.11n device.
My 802.11ac devices will not try 802.11ac MCSs.
:-(
All 3 devices are running 20231018-d6f6c4b.
I was expecting to get 156.0 or 173.3 TxMbps.
What is up?
