    Slow Network Speed


    I am helping a friend with her old laptop running Windows 10 Home 64 bit and she has a very slow Internet connection, less than 10Mbps on average. She is paying her ISP for a service called Internet 300 which means she should be getting a download speed of around 200 Mbps. I checked out her Wi-Fi connection and everything is setup properly. I connected an ethernet cable and I got the same lousy results.

    Next I connected my Samsung Android tablet to her router Wi-Fi and got more than 200 Mbps download speed. So I figure the problem must be her old laptop. To be sure, I connected my laptop running Windows 10 Pro, the latest FAST version and I got the same crappy slow Wi-Fi results. I did not bother testing out the ethernet cable. My laptop works great on my network and gets more than 200 Mbps for downloads and uploads.

    If it is not the Windows operating system, what is causing this problem? The only difference is that we do not have the same Internet service provider. Any suggestions as to how to fix this problem are appreciated. I may bring her laptop here to see how it work on my network.

    Ak

    Slow Network Speed

    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    • Outdated network adapter driver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.
