PC techy help... Slow internet - Piggy - 19-02-2016

More than usually frustrating as I am pretty much housebound...

Got 3.7mb on phone, tablet and laptop...

Getting .5mb on the PC. All readings via wifi.

Usually fine.

I've tried usually on/off for PC and router which seems to work for about 20min up to an hour and then drops again.

Same speed on all browsers.

PC isnt laggy, browser running a video (trying) its just ticking over on the processor/ram.

Any ideas? Pulling me hair out a bit.

Gone over download limit? Capping your usage perhaps?


RE: PC techy help... Slow internet - Piggy - 19-02-2016

Unlimited...

And as said...its fine on mobiles, tablet and laptop.

Shit network card in PC? Tried it hard wired?


RE: PC techy help... Slow internet - Eeyore - 19-02-2016

yeh try updating the driver for your wireless card. Is it an adapter or a card youve added? or is it standard on the motherboard? Running windows update is probably a good start and see if there is any wlan drivers listed in essential or optional sections.

Its internal.
I've done a troubleshoot fix...three times now...

Seems to have smoothed out for the moment

Lol...just waiting for Foobys speedtest to make 50mb look crap haha... Tongue


RE: PC techy help... Slow internet - Piggy - 19-02-2016

3.7mb is good.

When we first moved in it was around 1.8/1.9.

Bit annoying as live just down the road from Cameron. Sort it out PM


RE: PC techy help... Slow internet - Eeyore - 19-02-2016

Yeh we get 2mb here...


RE: PC techy help... Slow internet - Toms306 - 19-02-2016

8MB here. Wink lol

Though it would be more if I wasn't a tight arse sticking with the free copper, there is fibre laid in the area.

Doesn't Cameron live in London? Confused


RE: PC techy help... Slow internet - Ruan - 20-02-2016

Ah good, I like to be original. Wink

On the subject of Wifi... Have any android people had Wifi issues after upgrading to Marshmallow? Mine now takes a while to connect to wifi. Pre-update it was ~5 seconds, it's now ~25 seconds. I can live with it, once it's connected its super-quick, just wondered if there was a known fix for the connection time?
