My laptop is incredibly slow on home wifi, but fast with mobile hotspot and ethernet
Additionally other devices are fast with home wifi, it's just this one device (laptop) that's not fast
The wifi driver is up to date, evrything is fine, this speed issue has been the same since I bought this.
I been managing it with my phone with usb tethering.
Even when using hotspot the speed isn't nearly at it's peak.
And EVEN in usb tethering way the speed isn't reaching the absolute peak, there's always a trade off
Here's how it looks with numbers
Straight off my router itself is very slow , it's 2.4 ghz, but it does it's job, and my lap or phone isn't high end so it doesn't bother me, what bothers me is how much speed difference there is between my 3 year old mobile and the fairly modern laptop
Numbers ;
Peak speed with my phone 11 MB/s
With mobile hotspot to laptop : 3 MB/s
With usb tethering/ethernet : 7 MB/s
With straight connection to home wifi/router : under 500 KB/s (sometimes even it just refuse to load anything)
At first when I bought the lap i thought it's an issue with router, since it's fairly old and has issues often
But it's not.
And it's windows 11
