I am running dual boot ubuntu 19.10 and windows 10 pro. When I'm connected to my home internet(500mbits up and down) via 5ghz, I am getting the following results:

When running windows, I can easily hit the 200+ mbits up and down on the same network.
The installed wireless adapter is the Intel Wireless 8265 / 8275 with which I believe are the latest drivers and the latest firmware.

Within the Software and Updates panel I see it showing up but it says "This device is not working". see the image That might be part of the problem but i'm not sure as i've seen other people on here having no troubles but where it also says "This device is not working".
As asked in a comment, here the output of iwconfig

Below is the output for the wireless info script per request of a comment. Its an external link as the output was too long to put in here
I've tried several things like updating my kernel, updating the adapter firmware and turning 802.11n off with modprobe. Unfortunately non of it seems to work.
I'm quite new to ubuntu and linux in general so I'm not really sure what to do.
