Extremely slow Wifi speed when bluetooth mouse is not connected. Without bluetooth mouse speed is ~44 kb/s. Wifi powersave is disabled.

Device: Surface Book 2 Kernel version: 5.3.15-1-surface (from https://github.com/dmhacker/arch-linux-surface) Linux Distribution: Manjaro

Network device:

01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88W8897 [AVASTAR] 802.11ac Wireless
	Subsystem: Device 0007:045e
	Kernel driver in use: mwifiex_pcie
	Kernel modules: mwifiex_pcie

Looks like the same mwifiex_pcie from this thread.

Maybe try installing the latest firmware? I just updated the setup script to properly work with qzed's changes. Select "yes" for option 4 and reboot.
