OK so this is bat guano...

Boot off Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-Rawhide-20170110.n.0.iso USB
stick and retest:


[root@localhost liveuser]# iperf -c 10.0.0.3
------------------------------------------------------------
Client connecting to 10.0.0.3, TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 85.0 KByte (default)
------------------------------------------------------------
[  3] local 10.0.0.4 port 45208 connected with 10.0.0.3 port 5001
[ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
[  3]  0.0-10.0 sec  70.8 MBytes  59.2 Mbits/sec


For reference the previous result on Fedora 25 with kernel 4.8.17 was:
[ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
[  4]  0.0-10.4 sec  35.4 MBytes  28.5 Mbits/sec

I retested Fedora 25 to match the same kernel used by Rawhide, and I get:

[ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
[  3]  0.0-10.1 sec  49.9 MBytes  41.6 Mbits/sec

Firmware versions are the same in all three cases. And the iw outputs
are all the same. And the laptop is in the same location. So there is
something in the ether affecting the result, but it does seem pretty
clear there's something awry with Fedora 25 and it's not the kernel or
the firmware. Maybe wpa_supplicant? OK this is weird....

wpa_supplicant-2.5-5.fc24.x86_64

When I check koji, there are newer versions available for some time.
wpa_supplicant-2.6-1.fc25 lkundrak 2016-11-23 12:12:48

That's listed as being in updates-testing for 2 months.
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?packages=wpa_supplicant

OK so update to that and reboot...

Nope. Maybe it's a NetworkManager issue? I can't really update that,
or at least, I'm not willing to mix Rawhide's Network Manager on F25.
