Windows 10: Is this normal? It's only running between 0.55 GHz to 0.65 GHz

Lenovo X1 very slow on 5 GHz wifi, normal on 2.5 GHz

I have tried inSSIder and Acrylic Wifi Home.

inSSIDer reports signal strength in db. Both wifi bands are around -60 db, with the 5G band wavering between 0 and 3 db lower (weaker) than 2.5 gb. If i remember my DBs, being 3 db lower means half the strength.
inSSIDer shows a max rate of 1300 for 5 GHz and 216 for 2.5 GHz.
I couldn't see any way to get a text log.
Moving to 7' from my router, I got signals in the -30 db to - 40 db range. Midway from my usual workspace is an office around 20' from the router. There I got me around 50 db.

With Acrylic, the results are in RSSI. That's relative to some TP-Link reference, I assume, since my router is a TP-link. There, my results are around -65 to -70. Again, 2.5 GHz hovers between +5 better and 0 difference. Max speed for 5 GHz is the same 1300 Mbps; for 2.5 GHz is shows as 450 GHz.

At different times, I am sometimes seeing my actual internet download speed vary from 2 Mbps to 7 Mbps on 5 GHz. The 7 Mbps is the speed I am paying for. From the 2.5 band, it has varied from 4 Mbps to 7 Mbps.

I am thinking about getting a new router. I have an AC 1750 TP-link which is only a few years old, but maybe I need something better or a mesh router.

First, I want to repeat the internet speed tests via a wired Ethernet connection. That way I will see if some of the speed variations are due to my router's wifi or the hardware my ISP installed. My rural valley has a fiber optic main line, with little radios along it. They look like white plastic milk cartons. I have a small radio on a pole that gets a signal from the nearest main line radio.

 

Help!!!! CPU operating at only 0.51 GHz

.

Look at the Performance tab and at the bottom click Open Resource Monitor, check if you are seeing only 1 core out of the 2, 3 or 4 on the CPU. I get different speeds depending on the core, usually waiting a bit will step through the cores.

 

GHz Running Low

Hi, a week ago I the Latitude E5440 laptop Windows 10 and I've been getting problems with performance. When I would go to task manager and click on performance, my speed would be 0.78 GHz instead of 2.60 GHz. Obviously this is way, way slower than what it
should be and I've already tried guides on YouTube and other things. It is very hard to run programs with this problem and I'm stuck at the moment. Please help.
