I'm trying to see what max speed can be achieved

My setup is as follow:
Board: Compex WPJ 563
Card Compex wle900vx
OS: Libremesh running openwrt 18.06
Driver: ath10k_pci 0000:00:00.0: firmware ver 10.2.4-1.0-00033 api 5
features no-p2p,raw-mode,mfp,allows-mesh-bcast crc32 c41417d0
Firmware: firmware-5.bin_10.2.4-1.0-00041

Physical setup
Connected 3 6dBi antennas on each side to CH0, CH1, CH2 port to
achieve 3x3 mimo. Distance between 2 devices is 2m on a bench. Set
power level on each end to 8 dBm to ensure I don't saturate radios
