You're completely right. I have reset and upgraded my router (an MT7621
based router with OpenWRT) to latest OpenWRT, then the problem just went
away.
It looks like, under the original environment, it's the Android phone
doing something strange.

Nothing really, so I may hit something wrong with the NIC of the router,
not all these NICs.

Sorry for the confusion, I mean 5Ghz.
All tests are done in 5GHz freq (802.11ac), and iperf server is
connected by RJ45 (1Gbps) and iperf client is through wifi.
Anyway, after resetting the router, it's now back to the ~300 mpbs range.
Thanks,

Great!

It's hard to tell, because the characteristics of the WiFi on your
Android phone are very different from those on your laptop.

There was probably an upgrade of OpenWRT that started causing the
issue. Hard to say.

Ah, I should have guessed, of course. It's just that the word 5G has a
totally different meaning, hardcoded in my head, so I got confused. ;)

That's great to hear! Let us know if you encounter any further issues.
