Hello, your laptop is far from the router, which helps with signal strength. You enjoy smooth performance while playing League of Legends, but when your brother starts Netflix, latency spikes to 200-300 for a short time before dropping back to around 38. Since you can't connect via cable, look into network optimization tips or consider using a wired connection for better stability.
What router model are you using? Is Netflix streaming over the internet as well? How does this impact your gaming experience? What kind of connection do you have, and are you receiving the promised speed? Also, what is the model of your laptop's WiFi card? This problem might stem from several factors. Begin by answering these points. Use a tool like WiFi Analyzer on your laptop to check for bufferbloat. Ways to boost WiFi performance.
Additional queries were raised that remain unanswered. This appears to be a DSL or cellular gateway unit. Please clarify your internet service type. Both DSL and mobile networks differ greatly in available bandwidth from your provider. With DSL, performance declines the farther you are from the service point. Cellular signals depend on tower placement and network load, often resulting in higher latency than other connections. Essentially, you likely already face a sluggish connection with noticeable delays. Given the crowded spectrum, interference is almost certain. The HA35 functions as a Wi-Fi 4 device, capable of up to 300Mbps under ideal conditions. However, channel bonding on the 2.4GHz band consumes 40MHz, which frequently clashes with other signals. These findings are diagnostic only; they don’t fix the issue. Could you provide your test outcomes? Streaming at ultra HD demands around 25Mbps per session. A modest DSL or cellular link combined with 2.4GHz WiFi and a router lacking effective traffic handling only worsens the situation.
