I’ve noticed a problem where my laptop’s Wi-Fi performance drops noticeably when it’s powered on but improves once it’s shut down or turned off.

Are Windows updates happening without you knowing? Does another app keep running updates silently? Open Task Manager to see which program is using the most resources. For instance, Chrome might be using the most bandwidth.

Usage is minimal across the network. This applies only to other devices.

I notice the system is utilizing 2% of the network, but I don't recognize the specific program responsible.

I don't understand. The total usage remains below 5%.
