  • 0

Router connection on the wired side is fast….50-75mb download according to Speedtest.

But wireless part is very slow…1-2mb, sometimes less.

How to fix ?

  1. Have you tried unplugging your router for a minute and while it is rebooting, restart your computer or device? Sometimes this is all that is needed to get a poorly working Wifi to work properly again.

  2. What you’re talking about is your LAN side of things. As in, a wired LAN computer as versus a wirelessly connected computer. Take the same wirelessly connected device, disable it’s wireless interface, enable the wired interface and connect it with a network cable and test. What results do you get from a bandwidth test?

    The issue appears to be internal within your LAN between router and wireless client. Check to ensure clients have the most up-to-date drivers for their interfaces.

    Also, understand that wireless is inherently susceptible to lag and latency that doesn’t affect wired connections. Wired will always out perform wireless.
