  1. Slow internet speed on a new PC


    Hi! Im having a problem with the internet connection on my Windows 10 brand new PC.

    The speed should be 150mbps and on speedtest it shows that exact speed on all my devices exepct for the new PC. I tried plugging it with the ethernet cabel, turning off wifi and it still shows 1-5mbps.

    It is not a matter of the location, as laptops connected to wifi from the same spot show 140-150 mbps. I checked all the programms in task manager and resource monitor and nothing unusual is running, nothing is taking up the speed. It is not a matter of a virus, as the speed was low from the start.

    I tried disconnecting all my devices exept for the PC from the internet, it didnt change anything.

    I already tried updating the drivers, tried rebooting the router and the PC, tried updating the IPS and DNS adresses, nothing helped.

    I tried connecting to a WIFI hotspot from my phone, it shows same 1-5mbps, so it is not the problem of the router.


    However, yesterday night for an hour the speedtest did show 100mbs and today it shows 3mbps again. I doubt that it has something to do with the time like at night there are less people using the network because the internet on the laptop worked perfectly fine all the time, whilst the internet on PC only showed 100mbps for an hour or so.

    What should i do next/what can cause the problem?

    :)

    Slow Internet speed on only one computer.

    Hi Cody,

    Slow internet speed on one of your computer could be due to the following:

    • Outdated network adapter driver
    • Different Wi-Fi chipset
    • Computer processing speed

    Make sure that the network driver of your computer(s) are always updated.

    We also suggest you to contact your internet service provider for them to check your internet connection speed and give you more information.

    Feel free to post back if you have other concerns.

    Hi Blair,

    There are several factors that affect your internet speed. A few would be connection speed, network traffic, hardware capability, and type of connection. To help us identify what might be causing the slow internet speed on your laptop, allow me to ask the
    following information:

    • How's your laptop connected to the network? Is it directly wired to the modem/router or wirelessly connected?
    • Were your other computers that were getting 100 Mbps download speed connected to the same network?
    • Were there other devices connected to the network while you tried to download?
    • Have you tried connecting your laptop to a different network? Did you get the same internet speed?

    In the meantime, please run a speed test on your laptop. If the internet speed is slower that your internet package, then you may try to update the drivers of your network adapters to ensure that it's up-to-date. Please check out and follow the steps provided
    on this link: Update drivers in Windows 10.

    If you're trying to download while your laptop is wirelessly connected to your network, then kindly check its wireless adapter speed by checking its Wireless Network Connection Status. Follow these steps:

    1. Right-click the wireless icon on your system tray, click Open Network & Internet settings, then click
      Wi-Fi.
    2. On the right pane, click Change adapter options.
    3. Right-click your Wireless Network Connection and click
      Status
      .

    Please take a screenshot of the status page and kindly include it on your reply.

    Looking forward to hear from you.

    Regards.
