Sudden slow internet on 5ghz Wi-Fi
MrMTJ
So, i was searching for the lastest update of my network adapter
I figured out the just recently i had it updatedSo i installed the previous version
Then, i uninstalled the updater from device manager, and checked "Deleting this from the computer"
After restarting, the network is finally good, after 5 days of searching
I could now run the troubleshooter
I ran it and it couldn't identify any problem
I still don't get it, all apple/IOS machines are good with +200MB/s
Where windows devices are maximumly 60MB/s

- 5 GHz Wi-Fi networks experience less noise and interference from devices like microwaves or bluetooth devices. They also allow you to transfer data (including streaming video) faster, and the higher frequency uses less battery life on mobile devices like your Windows laptop.
Unfortunately, with those benefits come a number of drawbacks which can cause problems with accessing your 5 GHz Wi-Fi network. Your network adapter may not even support 5 GHz. It's also more sensitive to household obstacles like concrete walls or metal duct work. Windows or driver updates are also known to sometimes cause problems with accessing 5 GHz Wi-Fi networks.

Rachel Gomez Has anyone fixed this. My iMac measures my 5.0 GHz using Comcast speed test at 435 mbps. However, same network, same location, Windows Dell PC only measures 85 mbps. The connection status for that connection shows the adapter at around 385 mbps. Why is the windows laptop so slow with it's wireless connection.
MrMTJ Can you please tell me what you have done, I am also facing the same problem with my 5G network. In my personal laptop and in mobile it is giving around 200 mbps speed but at the same time it is giving 50 mbps in my other laptop. It would be great if you could help me.
