    My wifi speed is superslow, when Im just away from the router !


    I purchased a new laptop windows 11, and it works fine when I’m near the router. However, when I try to use the laptop’s internet away from the router, the Wi-Fi speed becomes very low. All my other devices work just fine even when I’m away from the router, which proves that the router is functioning properly. My drivers are up to dateIntelR Wi-Fi 6 AX203, and I have already reset the network. I don’t know how to fix this issue.

    New router and crap WIFI speeds

    Ive just been and bought a new router (asus N55U) i was running a crappy talktalk router that kept getting hot and cutting out and was getting worse.

    Im running my maximusVformulas onboard wifi dongles, with wifi suite. broadcom 802 adapter.

    my average download speed on steam was around 1.5mbps but now its around 120kbs

    my ping on an american server was around 100 and now around 400-1,000

    whats happened? the new router is meant to be dual band 2.4+5ghz etc!

    my signal is full, the router is around 4 metres away!

    (im a network noob btw)

    New laptop with Wifi Ac and Verizon Qualcomm router major speed drop

    Open Settings, then Network & Internet, then Network and Sharing Center. Your WiFi connection will be shown under Active Networks. Click on the "link" for your WiFi connection. What speed is listed under Connection?

    950XL Wifi / Router Problem

    Since I have purchased my 950XL the wifi connection in my router shuts down, I still have wired connection but all devices connected via wifi lose their connection to router. Apparently others have the same issue as well My 950xl is messing with my router.

    Any suggestions is highly appreciated.

    UPDATE:

    • I have had 15 conversations on Twitter with @LumiaHelp & so far they have suggested general instructions. I will report back if they truly provide a solution.
    • This is the model of the modem that gets affected DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem | CDA3 | Hitron Americas

    UPDATE FEB 6:

    • Lumia Help & Microsoft's provided solutions via Twitter (@LumiaHelp) has been useless.
    • If anyone has this issue, please kindly complain on Twitter as more voices are needed.
    • They are suggesting this is an isolated issue & I keep sending the list of people whom everyday come up with this problem.
    • I need help to raise awareness otherwise we won't be noticed.
    • My ID on twitter is @LotfiCo if you want to include me in your message.

    Update June 6:

    • After months of back and forth with Lumia & Microsoft support, the phone works with certain routers and as evidenced by latest replies, it still doesn't work with some select other routers.
    • This effort has been useless in a sense that proper attention has not been given to this issue.
    • Is having a wifi connection too much too ask on a "smart phone"?
    • The support response has been ridiculous at best.
