I'm at my wit's end
My wi-fi works on my phone but on my laptop it's slower than frozen molasses
It's even at full bars
No connection issues
There should not be a problem
This thing's only like two years old goddamnit
Should I just take the thing to Best Buy or what
>>
Have you tried it with a different laptop?

Perhaps yours is bloated with botnet malwares datamining your web searches.
>>
>>18421903
No. But the only tablet in the house is apparently experiencing similar problems.
>>
>>18421903
And now it seems that it's slow on ALL devices
Fun
>>
>>18421983
Either there's some sort of bandwidth throttling going on or someone is secretly leeching off your internet.
>>
>>18421995
Bandwidth throttling? Can that be rectified?
>>
>>18422033
I can't say for sure without seeing the hardware/software itself. You could try a different wifi modem but if your ISP is doing the throttling, you''l need to pay for a VPN to route your internet traffic.
>>
>>18421869
How old is your router? If all your devices are having problems, it is likely the router or modem. I have a router where the 5 GHz creeped out after a year. Now I'm stuck on 2.4 GHz until I can replace it.
>>
>>18422093
About two years.
>>
>>18422123
1. Are you girl?
2. Is your WiFi secured with a password?
3. Why don't you flash OpenWRT?
>>
>>18421869
Common wifi slowdowns:
2.5Ghz frequencies tend to overlap causing interference. Switch to a 802.11ac? device and run 5Ghz that shod help. amd stick to radio channels 1, 6 and 11. Best option is to just buy a cable for stable internet.

Correct me if im wrong anons
>>
>>18421869
>>18422228 CONTINUED
It works on your phone because your phone probably supports the 5Ghz network, while outdated wi fi devices run 2.5Ghz
>>
>>18422137
1. Nope
2. Yep
3. Eh?
>>
>>18422228
I use an HP Pavilion Notebook and it runs Windows 10 (I've learned to live with it)
I'm not sure if that applies
>>
>>18422228
An 802.11n Channel Width for 5.2GH is set to 'auto', anyway
>>
>>18422228
I mean, that's what it's set to when I look at settings.
>>
>>18422242
Investigate if the slow down occur when you use a normal telephone, microwave oven or something else.
Change the password, maybe someone figured out your current. (I bet you're using a weak one)
>>
Maybe it's a sign that you should do something more productive with your time instead of looking at porn and meme. But na. Just wallow in self pity and depression and wonder why your life has no meaning.
>>
>>18422316
That doesn't exactly help, but, thanks for trying
>>
>>18421903
Please go back to /g/ retard

>>18421869
Try a different laptop, it may be the drivers or wireless card if its an older laptop (phones tend to be newer with newer tech.)
>>
>>18422421
No go, since all my devices are experiencing this slowdown
