Windows 10: Wi-Fi connection slowing down with BT on

Hi Guys,

Normally my Wi-Fi connection is like 40-50 Mb/s, but it slows down to, like, 10 Mb/s or so with BT on. That maybe does not sound bad, but often websites are taking ages to load. I switched my router to 802.11n; even if that helped, the improvement is hardly noticeable.

What is best is that it is not always the case, sometimes the Internet speed is just fine.

I cannot download the drivers for Windows 10 from the HP website (they are not there), although they were available.

Can the Internet speed be amended with some Windows setting change?

Cheers

:)

 

How to get WP to connect to preferred Wi-Fi connection?

I have a BT Home Hub router which transmits three separate networks: my own named one, and two generic ones, BT Wi-Fi and BT Wi-Fi-with-FON. Just lately my Nokia Lumia 710 has insisted on locking on to the BT Wi-Fi connection (through which nothing will
download unless I run the BT Wi-Fi app). I then have to select my own network manually.

Is there a way of getting Windows Phone to connect to my preferred Wi-Fi network first time and ignore the other two? It always used to do that.

Slow Wi Fi speed after free upgrade to windows 10 on my windows 8.1 laptop

After installing my free upgrade to windows 10 from windows 8.1 on my laptop the Wi Fi has slowed down from 13mps download to 3.7rmps and is very erratic. it is OK when connected to Ethernet.

I have tried updating the Wi Fi adapter driver ( latest driver installed ), then uninstalled the driver and windows reinstalled it ( no change still slow ). All other devices using the Wi Fi are all OK and read 13mps.

Please help.

 

Download latest drivers for Wi Fi and Bluetooth and update them. If no Windows 10 drivers are available, use 8 or 7. Also if you have an antivirus or firewall installed, make sure the settings do not block anything and cause delays.
