Very slow wifi
02-06-2020 07:00 AM

Hi Guys,
please help, I have an omen X - 900
The wifi is very slow.
I have an 80Mbit line.
My WiFi creates 10 Mbit.
Have a laptop from another company next to the PC .. same WiFi .. 70-75 Mbit.
Where can the problem be?
Please help and thank you

Are you getting a good signal? The same signal strength as the laptop?
Have the antenna's been knocked off the wifi card?
You have an Intel Wifi card in this PC, so I would suggest looking in device manager for the exact Intel model, and downloading / installing the latest drivers from the Intel website.

The antenna's are internal and connected to the M.2 wifi card.
Since you're getting the SAME signal strength as the laptop, then I will assume that antennas are attached and working.
Have you gotten a new wifi router recently? What is the brand and model of the wifi card? (look in device manager)

Have you tried anything? We should look at the usual tasks with the affected and the healthy computer.
Games usually create a lot of temporary files. I would first delete all of them using WINDOWS+R, typing "TEMP", press ENTER. Clear all the content with SHIFT+DELETE to avoid them from going to recycle bin. Skip all that can't be flushed. Repeat with %TEMP%
Then, restore Internet options. Select maximum performance energy plan. Delete all the background apps and not necessary services.
That should be enough in most of the cases.
