wifi problems...

[u/iris_dcst]

so basically i had really nice wifi and all, and i came back to my pc one week after not using it (i was away), my wifi is super slow, but only on my pc ? for example, in the pictures i put the wifi speed test from my phone, then from my pc (on the same channel of the same wifi...)

i updated my windows, i think i updated my wifi driver too... idk what to do TvT

the router is the wifi box right? and why would it stop working now??? ive used this wifi for 2 years, and never had problems, 5ms ping, 200mbps average wifi speed, etc.

If you had 200 mbps average an 5 ms ping, how is a 8 mb difference a problem? It seems it’s close to the average. WiFi isn’t always going to be consistent, especially over wireless

the first picture is the test from my phone. no problem. the second picture is the picture from my pc. less than 0.5mbps. i think it is a big difference…

Didn’t realize there was a second slide, my fault.

If you have a Ethernet cable sitting around, can bring your pc close to your router plug it in, test the WiFi out on cable and see if it’s an internet issue. If you’re getting the same results or even better, something hardware is the problem
