WMM causes other devices to not connect

My devices are disconnecting every time I turn off WMM. What's up with WMM that causes this?

Thank you for your response.
I'm specifically having issues with a MacMini M1 on macOS 11.5.2 and sometimes with a HP Pavillion AMD Ryzen 5 running Linux Mint 12 and kernel 5.14.0-051400rc3-generic. The HP's WiFi adapter identifies as "Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX200 (rev 1a)". Apple's WiFi identifies as "AirPort Extreme", Firmware: wl0: Jul 7 2021 00:48:27 version 18.50.40.10.7.8.121 FWID 01-f5ad2691
Having the issues regardless of distance to the router/repeater. Pings from the Mac are especially choppy:

the other way around - right now - is fine:
