Default 2.4GHz WiFi internet speeds are slow, my WYZE cameras are slow

I'm having a very large issue regarding connection speeds for my WYZE cameras and my 2.4GHz Wi-Fi internet connection in general.

I just have two cameras and they're both located in the same room as the TELUS Wi-Fi Hub.

I've tried placing them closer to the hub itself, but no difference. I'm checking the speeds via the WYZE app on my phone. Both cameras have a signal strength of around -42dBm.

They're on the 2.4GHz band:
  • Wireless Mode: g/n
  • Channel: Auto
  • Bandwidth: 20MHz
I've got about 4 devices total connected to this band, 2 of which are my two WYZE cameras. Two other devices are a raspberry pi and my wireless air conditioner. I've turned off the raspberry pis and the air conditioner, but the WYZE speeds don't change.

The other band I have enabled is 5GHz-High and only my phone is connected to that, when I'm home. My phone WiFi speed seems to work fine. It seems to be the 2.4GHz band where internet speeds are drastically low.
My overall internet speed is 170Mbps on ethernet, same on my phone. I don't know how to check speeds on my WYZE cameras other than the WYZE app, but when I check my raspberry pi on WiFi: Download is around 7.96 Mbps and upload is around 5Mbps.

So this is quite a large issue.
