My wifi normal speed is 100 mbps.if I go to sleep mode and reactivate laptop the speed of wifi drops to 30 mbps and stays like that until I disconnect from wifi and reconnect or reboot the laptop.
There is no option in power management for wifi power tuning.
Thanks

Hello @yahiadal
Sorry to hear that you are having problems ... I would like to help you.
Let me check your basic system configuration before we focus on the <wireless> connection ... |
(1) Run msinfo32
- Select <System Summary>:
--->>> Copy/screenshot/paste following key/value pairs:
OS Name |
Version |
System Model |
System SKU ( equals HP product number (p/n) ) |
Processor |
BIOS Version/Date |
BaseBoard Product |
BaseBoard Version |
(2) Start Windows <Device Manager>
- Expand <Network adapters>
- Expand <Other devices> ? (Those entries are for hardware for which Windows has not loaded a suitable driver)
--->>> Send screenshot
(3) Please report back

Hello @yahiadal
(1) Create Windows system <restore point>
How to Create a System Restore Point on Windows 10 or Windows 11
(2) Download and install BIOS Update
HP Notebook System BIOS Update (Intel Processors) | F.18 Rev.A | 10.0 MB | Nov 4, 2022 | Download |
Why should you install the update ? https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_4123786-2338478-16 Quote: " Updating the BIOS is recommended as standard maintenance of the computer. It can also help resolve the following issues: - An available BIOS update resolves a specific issue or improves computer performance. - The current BIOS does not support a hardware component or a Windows upgrade. - HP Support recommends installing a specific BIOS update. " |
(3) Reboot
(4) Let BIOS be installed until it's completely done !
(5) Download and install / update

Hello @yahiadal
Well, let's leave the Bios update out of it for now. You did not report about the wireless connection ?

This behavior indicates a technical or Bios software problem! |
Do you have valid HP warranty ?
Check HP warranty status:
You need to provide the serial number of your notebook here: Check your warranty or service status
To find serial number follow: Find product and serial numbers for HP PCs, printers, and accessories
Don't post serial number here in the community !
If status (date) is wrong: |
Kind regards
