I have major problems streaming

[Liddi]

I have a normal HP laptop and Netflix and other streaming platforms are laggy and they stutter, I really need help because I would love to use it to watch things as I would on my phone. I have spectrum wifi but it only lets me connect to the 2g and not the 5g so it's slow

@Liddi here's a few things you need to do, to resolve this issue once and for all:

• Disable all firewalls and antivirus programs including windows ten's own firewalls and antivirus programs.
• try safe mode with networking to check if the Internet connection is fast there. Try both wired and wireless options.
• Link for safe mode with networking is given in my earlier post. Please try that.
• Uninstall the existing network adapters and update the bios chipset and network adapters (both wired and wireless) from this link : click here to find and install the same
• Please try to change the router's broadcasting channel to another value. try different working channels. that might help for WiFi only.
• Try performing a clean boot in windows 10 using this link: Click here for steps
