Internet Speed Decrease When Computer Plugged Into Charger

  • 0

I have an Acer E5-511 quad core laptop. The internet works great when not on the charger. Once the charger is plugged in the internet response becomes sluggish and jerky. Speed drops from 55 Mbps to 14 or less. As soon as the charger is removed, the speed returns to normal. I have searched web and adjusted settings to power menu. If anyone can help, it would be most appreciated.

  1. GrnLady2, do you have another laptop that you can check your wifi with? (for me – i have 2 laptops which is how i discovered this problem to begin with) Even when my laptop in question is OFF or the battery is removed completely, and even disconnected from the wifi, when that charger goes in, the internet goes out and I can see this from my other laptop to confirm it
