Hi @ap203,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

If your OMEN by HP 16-xf0000 gaming laptop gets ~100 Mbps on Ethernet but only 15 Mbps on Wi-Fi, even after updating drivers, here are the most likely causes and fixes:

Why Wi-Fi Speed Is Low

1. Router Band or Distance
   • If connected to 2.4 GHz, speeds are much lower than 5 GHz.
   • Check your router settings and connect to the 5 GHz band.
2. Wi-Fi Adapter Settings
   • Windows may be using Power Saving Mode for Wi-Fi.
   • Or the adapter is set to 802.11n instead of 802.11ac/ax.
3. Channel Congestion
   • If many devices share the same channel, speed drops.
   • Use router settings or an app like Wi-Fi Analyzer to pick a less crowded channel.

Fixes to Try

1. Force 5 GHz Connection

• Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi > Manage Known Networks.
• Forget the network and reconnect, ensuring it’s the 5 GHz SSID.

2. Change Wi-Fi Adapter Properties

• Press Windows + X → Device Manager → Network Adapters.
• Right-click your Wi-Fi adapter → Properties > Advanced.
• Set: 
  • Preferred Band = 5 GHz
  • Wireless Mode = 802.11ac or ax
  • Roaming Aggressiveness = Medium

3. Disable Power Saving

• Go to Control Panel > Power Options > Change plan settings > Advanced settings.
• Under Wireless Adapter Settings, set Maximum Performance.

4. Update Router Firmware

• Log in to your router’s admin page and check for updates.

5. Test with HP Network Diagnostics

• Open HP Support Assistant → Network Check.
