Needs assistance? Slower Wi-Fi works, but wired connection is smooth.
I noticed a few days ago that my Wi-Fi speeds dropped significantly to around 0.08Mbps or 0.4Mbps. I’m confused about what’s going on since my main system connected through the CAT cable works fine and gives normal 120 Mbps speeds. Only four devices are online—my dad, mom, wife, and me—and none of them are downloading much. They just watch YouTube or play simple mobile games together. My old laptop, which I use for backing up old DVDs and family photos, is the only thing connected besides that. I’ve restarted the router and my phone several times, but the issue persists. Any advice would be really helpful.
Have you tested your phone on another network?
Do you have access to the router's control panel, which usually shows connected devices?
Which device is experiencing the problem?
Wired connections tend to offer faster speeds compared to Wi-Fi. This isn't meant as a comparison since Wi-Fi is already reliable. Other than that, I'm not sure. Have your family members encountered this issue too?
Routers can fail over time, and wireless performance often drops first. These are just assumptions!
1. Do not have any other network 2 Yes i do and i have checked, the only things connected are our home devices owned by us. 3 All the devices that are connected to wifi have slow internet from the past 2 days, i even checked for interference, reset the router. well if that is true then it does sounds my my router is on its way. This has never happened to me so i had no idea that routers can die.
